Aw, isn’t this wittle baby elephant the cutest?
I have been itching to play with this new set I purchased at 25% off a while back, Zoo Babies. And, of course I go for the most popular animal, the elephant. But, that’s only because I am following a color challenge over at Create with Connie and Mary. They have so many wonderful things going on over there right now. This is CCMC276. Just perfect for my little non-holiday baby gem.
I made a 4×4 card following another challenge over at Technostamper. This is their Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 287. Very fun layout for a multi-layer card.
I embossed the Coastal Cabana using the Perfectly Polka Dot Embossing Folder. (That is probably the folder to own if you have to choose just one!) And on the Smokey Slate, I used my Simply Scored Scoring Tool. Makes for a perfect, light pin striped background. Hard to tell, but the top of that is Scalloped Border Punched.
I double stamped the elephant ear and cut out the 2nd one to add a little fun dimension. Makes for a shadowing on the card photograph.
I’m either going to adhere this to a white gift bag with some red, blue and grey tissue or hang it from a bag as a tag for a baby gift. This little gem of a card needs to be seen!
Love to read you comments about my inspirations!
Happy Stampin’
