I stamped the elephant twice so I could cut out the ear and attach a second layer so it would stand up from the body. Stamped the sentiment and punched an oval of dotted dsp. I splattered the background of very vanilla in hello honey and blackberry bliss. I added the ribbon over the two lower ovals and under the top oval with the elephant. I had lots of fun splattering the background.

Such a darling card and the "floppy" ear on the elephant is a clever and cute detail. I like your card design with the overlapping ovals and the spattered colors in the bg.

Great work with these colors and the dessert this week, Pat. Your splatters are grea, Splatters always make me nervous as I am afraid of ruining a finished card with that final touch.

I love the floppy elephant ear! That was such an inspired touch! The splatters look great, and I love the way you did the ribbon over two ovals, but under the top one. Lovely!
