August Birthday Bash #16 - Polka Dot Orchard The Elephant in the Room

Hello!

I am back for day 16 of my August #birthdaycardbash challenge. Today I am using products from Polka Dot Orchard for my card.

To create the background for my card, I layered some digital papers from Polka Dot Orchard using an editing program and printed them onto Hammermill premium printer paper using my Epson EcoTank printer. I used the Rollin' With Jesus and Cross My Heart papers. I then trimmed it down to 4" x 5.25" using my Tim Holtz guillotine trimmer.

Next, I printed the elephant from the Polka Dot Orchard The Elephant in the Room digital stamp set onto gray cardstock. I printed the sentiment onto white. The sentiment reads "How could I have forgotten your day ELEPHANTS never forget."

I tore around the elephant and sentiment for a fun edge and inked around them using a foam blending tool and Black Soot Distress Ink.

I adhered everything flat to a white A2 card base using Art Glitter Glue and then accented the card with Trinity Stamps Black Licorice Jelly Hearts.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed the card and are inspired to create.

I also want to invite you to join me in my #cardmakingchallenge over on my Facebook page. See the pinned post at the top of my page for details.

Happy crafting!
