While on the subject of elephants for my layout I did earlier today I made an elephant card.
I didn't worry about the double trouble challenges.
While on the subject of elephants for my layout I did earlier today I made an elephant card.

The theme at Challenge YOUrself is to use a GRID pattern
I started with the elephant!
A few years ago, a baby elephant was born at Taronga zoo in Sydney. He walked by shuffling until his legs became stronger. He was nicknamed "Mr Shuffles"
On my layout I featured yellow as my background colour. I added a bird embellishment next to a flower I made (top right)
Here is my layout for the Jumpstart sketch at The scraproom.. I only had 2 photos but otherwise followed the sketch closely. I chose black, white and red because it went with the photos.
My papers are from a paper pad named Vintage Escape. The 2 paisley shapes on mulberry paper have been in my stash for a long time as have the red brads.The title was from a travel themed paper set. The red banner says "Together is my favourite place to be"
My favourite thing to use on Christmas cards are tags, usually paired with a brad or ribbon.
On this card I have layered 3 tags then popped a chipboard shape in the front. I think they look classy or if arranged well "balanced".
I'm entering this at As you like it challenge.
This morning I rebirthed a Christmas card for 2challenges.
Firstly, at Crafty Gals corner they want 3 layers. I have double matted my picture then added a sentiment on top. This makes a total of 4 layers.
Next at Farmquest they wanted a frozen pond or creek. The penguins are having a lovely time ice skating.
Yesterday I created a new layout purely for myself. I chose a black and white theme.
About a month ago I went to Cape Solander. We were whale watching and over the course of an hour saw these 2 photos.
The Basic Grey paper named bow ties was suitable for my base paper as it has waves on it. I tore some stone patterned paper along the bottom of the layout then 2 rows of torn white paper to create the waves or splash from the whales. I added my title lower to show off the wave paper.
