Happy Heart Day Swap Card


I made this card for a Valentine's Day card swap. Really easy to make...it's hard to see in the picture but the elephants fingernails are glittery and I outlined the circle with a glitter pen. I stamped the elephant on grey cardstock and cut him out and then applied him to the stamped image.
