Indian Elephant Birthday Card

Hello!

Here's a card I've made for my Mums Friend. I was told she likes Indian Elephants and purple! And she's planning on going to ride an elephant in a few years for her 50th Birthday




I had to dig real deep to find some purple Indian looking papers but I think these fit the bill!

All the bits I used are pretty random from my stash!

This was definetely a Stash raider card!

I coloured the elephant with Promarkers and added one of the gems on her pretty headwear!




Suffering badly with a migraine at the mo so I'll pop round to your blogs as soon as I'm feeling a little better!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Lucy x










Challenges:

(Purple and mint green or India and Elephants!)
