Isn't that elephant just the cutest little thing ever?!? Makes me want to hug somebody!
My favorite part was making these awesome buttons using a tip from Jeanette Lynton's blog (read it here). She had a tip about embossing on buttons and I just loved the idea. I've put rub ons on buttons before but never done embossing. I embossed clear buttons with Baby Pink polka dots and then used a Sharpie to color the back of the button in black. A little black hemp through the holes and viola! a fun and funky embellishment for this card!
If you'd like to make this card, get these supplies:
Paper: Sweetheart Level 2
Stamps: Life's a Jungle, School Rules, Spot on Backgrounds, Thank You
Other: Black Embossing Powder, Baby Pink Embossing Powder, Licorice Opaques, Hollyhock ribbon, Watercolor Pencils (to color in pencil image), Black Sharpie, Gray Satin Ribbon, 3" Circle Punch, Scalloped Nestabilites, Black Hemp
