Elephant Shaped Card

Today I have a cute shaped card for you:


I used the "B is for Boy" cartridge to cut the elephant shape at 5" wide, which makes it a little shy of 4 3/4" tall.  I pieced it all together, using a dark grey enamel dot for the eye.  I cut the elephant shape twice.  I adhered them at the top, scoring the back side 1/2" down to fold open.  I also cut a straight line across the bottom of the ball so that it would stand on its own.


The sentiment is a stamp from Jaded Blossoms, the So Many Birthdays set.


I made this for the following challenges:
BBTB2: shaped card
Color Throwdown: color combination

My Sheri Crafts: child's birthday
