Shady Tree and Elephant

Good Sunday morning.  I made several baby cards with the new Impression Obsession Patchwork Elephant over the last couple of weeks using coordinating designer paper.  I think he looks equally cute done in plain grey and pink.  I paired him in a scene with the Taylored Expressions Shade Tree Cutting Plate, Impression Obsession Leaves and Stems and Tiny flowers and My Favorite Things Fresh Cut Grass.  The frame was made using the Nesting Card Templates.

I started by attaching the grass and shade tree to the back of the frame suing double stick tape. I applied thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the frame and attached it to the card base. I assembled the elephant parts together with glossy accents and mounting tape and tucked him in behind the grass and attached to the card base with mounting tape.

I used my stylus and molding pad to form several tiny flowers for the tree and stems and attached them with glossy accents.  I tucked the stems in around the base of the tree and attached with glossy accents.  I couldn’t resist adding one tiny flower with leaves to the elephant’s ear and a few butterflies for the finishing touch.
