Die cut 1 Thick Basic White Card Stock circle using the largest Deckled Circles Dies. Fold in half and burnish.
Die cut 1 Designer Series Paper circle using the 2nd largest Deckled Circles Dies. Fold in half and burnish. If the DSP has a pattern, fold it trying to be mindful of the pattern.
Attach the DSP circle to the card stock circle using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. I glued one half at a time.
Stamp the Cradle and elephant with Memento Black Ink onto Basic White C/S. Color using Stampin' Blends. I used Crumb Cake and Bubble Bath on the cradle and Smoky Slate for the elephant. I covered the elephant in Crystal Effects or the Fine Tip Glue Pen. It makes it look like a plastic toy. Fussy cut both the cradle and elephant.
I used some White 3/4" Frayed Ribbon, (it's on sale in the Clearance Rack) for the rug. I pulled some of the threads from each end to make the rug frayed on both ends. I think it looks just like a real rug! I attached it to the card using some Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Attach the cradle to the card using Dimensionals.
Stamp the sentiment using Memento Black Ink onto a thin strip of Basic White C/S. Attach using Dimensionals. Attach the elephant using another Dimensional.
Add some Loose Silver Sequins and a Bakers Twine White Bow.

Attach balloons to the card front. I used Dimensionals on the larger balloon.
For the sentiment banner, I added 3 Dimensionals on top of each other in the center and glued the 2 ends flat so it pops up the center of the banner.
I kept the inside of my card simple by just adding a small strip of the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper along the bottom. This is the same DSP I used on the card front.
Finish off the card front with some of the co-ordinating Rainbow Adhesive Backed Dots.
I added another co-ordinating piece of the Lighter Than Air DSP to my envelope flap.
