I am excited to make these cute Elephant Parade Cards today.  We are playing with the  Elephant Parade Bundle from the Annual Catalog.  When I saw this bundle I wanted to create 3 different styles of cards using some basic layouts.

CARD 1
  • Card Base in Mint Macaron 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ Folded at 4 1/4″

  • 3rd Largest Standard from Layering Circle Dies in Basic White
  • To Cut out my Shrubs from the Elephant Parade Bundle I used the Hughes of Happiness Designer Paper
  • Using the A La Mode Alphabet Dies I cut out Baby in Basic White.  TIP YOU WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO USE THE SELF ADHESIVE SHEETS
