Cute Elephants

  Hi Everyone, I have 2 DT cards today, this is for -


Anything Goes but they MUST feature a critter as the main focus
Whether Furry, Feathered, Fantasy, Fairytale, 
Scaly, or Insect, there must be a critter...

My card today is for one of my Great Great Nieces, she is 3 and I saw this group of 3 elephants in my files and had to go with it. I took it into my die cutting machine and cut 3 layers. I then coloured it with my Distress Inks and added 3D glaze. I had bought a craft box of items and used a card and die cut hearts to make a shaker. I also used the stars in the box too. I painted the heart and gave it a "distressed" look? The sentiment was left over from another project and when I posted this I looked at the sentiment and realised it wasn't quite straight, just as well I could remove and straighten it. The 3 was also cut in 3 layers, with glue and glitter, then covered with glaze. Before adding the pink card layer to the main card I stencilled it in hearts.

Awww, this card is adorable Faith! Your Great Grand Niece will love it! Those little elephants are way to cute stacked up-so fun! Love the heart shaker and of course what child doesn't love to see their age number on a card?! The inside is just as cute as the outside. A fab card my friend! Hugs, Brenda

Hi Faith, did you think I fell off the face of the earth? Haha no, just been feeling like I did. Doing better so time to catch up. I bet your little recipient will like this, they love animal stacks and rhymes. A very cute card, hope you and hubs are doing well. xoxo
