Elephant

Here is a simple birthday card that would be great for a little girl. The card is 5"x5" and made from white cardstock. The brown layer is 4 7/8"x4 7/8." The teal layer is 4 1/2"x4 1/2" and the polka dotted pink layer is 4 3/8"x4 3/8." The teal squares are 2"x2" and embossed with the Seeing Spots embossing folder. I used ZooBalloo for the elephant. It is cut at 3 1/2" and I used pop-dots to adhere it to the card. I used some acrylic flowers by Martha Stewart on her head. I finished off the card with the sentiment, which is matted with some glittery teal cardstock. The sentiment is from Scrappy Moms Stamps.
I made this for the following challenges:
