I changed the card from rectangle to square, used a border punch for one of the panels rather than dp and added a flower bottom right instead of the centred ribbon.
I needed a new baby card for a friend and chose this lovely Penny Black elephant that was stamped for me by a friend. I coloured with prismacolor pencils and oms, added stickles to the flowers, a gem and a sentiment for Thomas with rub on letters.
I made the gingham paper in photoshop and cut a piece for the background and another for one of the panels backed with blue bazzil card these were layered with a piece of the same blue bazzil that I edged with a Fiskers border punch. Amazingly it came out ok first time! I usually have so much trouble lining up the pattern and waste loads of card. The image panel was mounted on thin dimension tape on the side that touched the card blank and glue on the other side over the other panel. I added a prima flower with gem centre to finish. TFL.
