Using this detailed elephant for my one stamp, I did this BG while chatting on the phone. I started with a vivid multimedia mess of a hot pinks & raspberries bg. I added 5 different oxide colors and it was just so bubblegumy and not at all to my liking. By the time I painted and die cut the single elephant, it calmed it way down and it was growing on me. I found the perfect sentiment, I think. It's way more current than, "Sorry, I forgot". I also like that the bow is upside-down. One of the best parts of this design is the extra heavy weight of this felt-like letterpress CS and the wide borders. Very fast and fun, and I can see making more when I forget a birthday or make a future oops!

Love your more current sentiment as your "oops" and I especially love that you paired your "oops I forgot" with an elephant. Too funny. I like the bg a lot, but I can imagine it was too much pink before you what looks like blues and grays on my screen. It's a great bg for your one simple image. Fun belated bd card.
