Elephants on Parade Birthday Card...

A great Tuesday morning everyone...Just popping up today to share this A2 card I made for a 3 year-old girl who had her birthday recently.  She's into elephants so, what better way to make her happy but to give her an elephant card as well.  I got this image from Spyder's Corner as one of the 3 digi images that I chose for a prize when I won a challenge at the same blog.  I say it came at a perfect timing...LOL  I colored the image with my Prismacolor Markers, did some inking with Distress Inks (Rusty Hinge), added some orange gems, fancy ribbon, border punch (Fiskars) and a DP from DCWV Citrus Collection.  I stamped a flower (note) image twice from Stampendous, wrote the outside sentiment free-hand while the inside sentiment was taken from the Ultimate Guide to a Perfect Card Book.  So, what do you all think?  This Card is entered into the following Challenges:

1.    Crafty Sentiments Designs featuring "Use a Digi"
2.    Digital Tuesday featuring "Distressed" 
3.    Lexi's Creations featuring "Use of Dies/Punches" 
4.    Make it Monday featuring "Anything Goes" 
5.    Whoopsi Daisy featuring "Free and Easy" 
6.    Paper Sundae's featuring "Anything Goes"

This week, I am a bit lazy to create some cards but had been taking some time to continue making my crochet blanket...It will take a while before I'll be able to finish it to fit a King size bed...LOL  Hopefully today, I can accomplish something in my Craft room.  I am not a stranger to days feeling uninspired but I just ask the Lord JESUS for guidance and inspiration and He gives it to me.  I pray that my projects will not be just any regular craft pieces but those that delivers light and hope to whoever receives them.  Thanking  my Father in Heaven for His constant love...
