Oracle Text

Exile this creature from your hand: Add {G}.

"The spirits of the Whispering Woods are mysterious and mercurial. Follow one, and you're just as likely to end up at the center of the forest as you are at your own front door." —Greensleeves, High Wizard of the Domains

If a spell or ability's cost includes returning a creature to your hand and paying mana, you can't activate Elvish Spirit Guide's mana ability after returning it to your hand. This is because mana abilities must be activated before you begin paying costs.
