Thanks Ellie

I'm trying to rediscover my mojo, and the Muse challenge is always a good place to start!  Tracey's inspiration card this week features a sweet elephant - I don't have very many in my stash, reckon it's because I find them hard to colour!

I've used this oldie from High Hopes - I'd a wee scrap of the pink paper left so used it to paper piece her ribbon.
I added silver marker and clear gloss to her nails for a nice manicure ;)
Pink stars from stash.
Watercolour pencils.

Well, girl, your MoJo came racing back! This is totally adorable! I think I may have a couple of elephant stamps - I need to look. This looks like a fun challenge! Thanks for the inspiration! Hugs...

I love how your elephant sort of "plonked" herself down, and now looks a bit perplexed. Maybe that ribbon tied around her trunk was supposed to remind her of something, but she just can't recall what! I don't have a single elephant stamp. I do have a little elephant die, but that's it. I love your card, Lynne. And I'm certain whoever receives it will absolutely love it, too!

What a fantastic stamp Lynne, the paper pieced bow around her trunk is fabulous!! My mojo has definitely gone walkabout, as it often does at this time of year!! I have no inspiration at all...even DT themes aren't helping...eeeek!! xx
