This fun card is great for Males or Females and also its pretty handy to keep in your card stash.

You will need:

• White Card Hopsack 255gsm
• Fleck Kraft Card 250gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 250gsm
• Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml
• Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm

You will also need:

• Elephant Stamp (Simon Says Stamp)
• Watercolour Ink Pad and Watercolour Paints
• Hooray Die (My Favorite Things)
• Greeting (Uniquely Creative)
• Balloon Die (Paper Smooches)
• Glitter Card
• Silver Embossing Powder (WOW)
• Heat Gun
• Twine
• Background Stitch Dies (Mama Elephant)

For the card base I trimmed down a piece of White Card Hopsack 255gsm to 4 1/8" and scored at 5 7/8".

I then used a piece of Fleck Kraft Card 250gsm and run this through my die cutting machine using the stitches die. I adhered this onto the card base using some Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

I then stamped and water coloured the elephant and trimmed him out. I die cut the balloon and using some Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm I tied twine to the balloon and stuck the rest behind the elephant. I adhered them onto my card.

I then die cut the word hooray using some White Card Super Smooth 250gsm and adhered onto the card with some Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml.

I then heat embossed the sentiment onto some White Card Super Smooth 250gsm and trimmed this down. I then adhered this to the card with some more Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm.

Your card is now complete.
