I took this photo, together with several silhouettes from cup265818_688 and two of the brown shade backgrounds from cup358090_99 into one of my graphics packages and moved them around and changed their sizes until I was happy with the layout created in a size to fit with a 1cm border around it on an 8" square card. I then printed out the design onto Glossy Crafty Bob paper. After trimming the design, making sure to keep the small elements I'd put out of the main frame, I stuck this onto the front of a pale cream, pre-prepared, base card using fingerlift tape. The "Penblwydd Hapus" greeting used is Welsh for Happy Birthday, but as the design is created using layers I can simply change this greeting if I need it in another language.
I'm sure that this elephant photo could be used in lots of ways on cards of different styles.
