As soon as I saw this card in the gallery a huge smile spread across my face! I LOVE everything about it...the colors, the patterned paper, the design, the sweet elephant and the fun sentiment! You did a really awesome job on this! *Good on you for getting a hint about the August challenge out of Karen, LOL! ;)
So Karen is hosting the Inspirational Card Challenge this month and the Bonus Category is - Make a card for a belated birthday (7/2/16 – National I Forgot Day). As soon as I saw this I thought "did I forget again?" and got out my address book that has a birthday calendar in it. Yep, my step-mother-in-law's birthday was in June not July. But to my defense I really thought it was in July. See we missed it last year but we really did just miss it last year. This year I was thinking about it and even looked and got in my head that I didn't have birthday cards to make in June but had hers in July. So I tried to explain to her that she gets to celebrate the same birthday twice so it's a bonus for her!! She laughed!! But also to my defense I do this with several people. If you remember last year I had to mail a card to my BFF (yes, best friend) EVERY month just so I would remember to put her card in the mail BEFORE her birthday...it worked!! And my best friend from 6th grade I still think her birthday is 9/23 when it is actually 9/22 so I also call her a day late. I have issues!! But it came in perfect timing for Karen's challenge! Thanks Karen for helping a girl out!!
So in searching for ideals cause my husband came up with a real cute one last year when we screwed up I wasn't sure what to do for this year. Well I saw a card with this saying and an elephant on it. When I read it the saying for the inside of my card came to me so I knew it was meant to be. I remembered Deedee's Digis (no longer in business) had a cute elephant about not forgetting. Then I had tons of scraps that my friend left for me after helping her make signs for a wedding. Everything on this card is from scraps!!
