The Play Date Cafe color challenge and the CAS-ual Fridays baby card challenge work perfectly together, and inspired me to make this elephant baby card.
I was so thrilled to find this great white fabric at a flea market last month ... for ONE dollar! There are yards of it, and it has the best texture, just like a cozy baby blanket. The ribbon is also vintage, and so super thick and silky. Any chance I get I buy antique or vintage - such great quality materials!
The dangling metal initial will be changed once I know the name of my cousin's baby. For now, it's an "E" for Elephant : )
I changed my mind on the outside of the card, so being resourceful and using what's left on my desk, I put the angel wings heart on the inside for the sentiment.
Thanks for looking!
