Hello! I'm the hostess at Just Us Girls this week and I chose this photo for our Photo Week challenge. I love elephants and loved this photo.
I had so many ideas for this challenge. In the end, I chose this stamp set from Concord & 9th but it didn't end up the way I envisioned. I die cut the elephant from the center of the print and die cut it three more times from white cardstock and mounted them all together. When I photographed it, you couldn't see the elephant very well. So I die cut another elephant from yellow cardstock. Looks much better in the photos, but I liked it better the first way in person. Oh well. The elephant is covered with shimmer.

I love that majestic elephant among the flowers! Very cool design and color combo with the perfect finishing touch with the crystals. Awesome choice for our Photo Challenge this week!
Great job combining the challenges Lisa! Love the background too!
Cute colourful and so pretty Lisa.
Sometimes photography is our enemy, Lisa. I'm sorry your original plan didn't work but this card looks fantastic with the big yellow elephant.
