Die Cuttin' Divas Guest Designer! A Jumbo Elephant Thank you!

I am so excited to be Guest Designing for Die Cuttin' Divas today! Yippee!

We have a new jumbo-sized Die Cuttin' Diva challenge this week and we sure hope you will share your card, layout, or altered project.

The Challenge...

Create a project using an elephant

  I personally love elephants, I have a huge collection of them that started when my Dad gave me a tiny stuffed elephant when I was very ill as a child. Since then I have collected and received many beautiful elephants, so I was so excited to be doing such a perfect challenge!

Background Information...

Elephant Appreciation Day was declared beginning in 1996 by WildHeart® Productions to celebrate the Elephant

When: September 22

Origin of Elephant Appreciation Day:  Mission Media Inc. created in 1996, largely because elephants are....large (and a whole lot of other great things). The founder, Wayne Hepburn, received a paperweight of elephants on parade from his daughter as a gift. He became fascinated by them. He amassed a huge collections of elephant books and paraphernalia. His fascination and love of elephants, led to the creation of this day so you and I can stop and enjoy this huge, lumbering beast.

Here is my project:

I used the Paisley Cricut cartridge for my jumbo elephant

A jumbo thank you stamp from Studio G

This week's super sponsor is...
