Well, I'm still exploring the amazing capabilities of Photoshop Elements (PSE), and came across a whole array of clip-art shapes and images in the Editing Palette.
I needed a new 'Baby Boy' card after selling my last one on Friday, and while I was about it, I decided to update my 'Baby Girl' design, too. So I imported the bear and the stork images, and had a play around to create two new backgrounds for some quilled balloons.
The bear was originally brown and white, but I eventually managed to colour in the sections and get him on to a blue background - that's a few more steps forward for me on the PSE learning curve!! The stork I just enlarged a bit and pulled on to a pink background. Then all I had to do was add the quilled balloons. Next time I'm going to make the bear smaller and the blue balloon bigger for the Boy card - but at least this is a start!
So cute. I think you are right about making the bear smaller in proportion to the balloon. That size though would look really cute if you quilled a pink bubble gum bubble about the size the balloon is now.
