This card sat undone for a really long time. I started with the background paper and the image of the elephant with the bird on his back. At first I thought this card would just make itself, but boy, was I wrong! haha!
It sat and sat, and I would go back to it almost every day not knowing what else to do with it. Then I added the happy birthday piece, and was stumped again. I was about ready to just throw it away, but I had a piece that didn't quite work on another card sitting nearby, and tried that. That was the happy birthday strip. Then I saw a balloon that I had stamped on a scrap piece, colored it, cut it out, and gave it to the elephant to hold. It was getting there, but still missing something.....after studying the card for about 20 minutes, it hit me to use ribbon scraps. Finally!!!!! Still don't feel like it's completely right, but I have a sense of accomplishment now that it's done!!
