Circus Elephant

This month at Twisted Thursday, we have PpinkyDolls as our sponsor. Always fun. And, this week's optional twist is Circus! The image I selected is called Circus Elephant.
 The base is from a Darice Snow Globe die, oval and triangle dies from Paper Smooches, Simon Says border waves for blue scallop, and polka dot banner die from C.C. Designs. Papers are from Echo Park, Fine and Dandy pack. The image was popped and a "crowd" was added with Copics. The finishing touch was to add some Nuvo Crystal Drops.

    Oooh, those stripes and polka dots are perfect with this sweet little performer! Great coloring, too!

      I actually went to Madison Square Garden in NY when I was a child to see the circus. I loved the elephants best!

    I love the papers you used in your card! And the way the scallops look like tenting. Very nicely done! I always wanted to go to the circus.

      Add it to your list, Angela, and just be sure to go. It's even more fun if you can take a child with you. Nothing like seeing something through a child's eyes!

    What a wonderful way to use other shapes and die cuts to achieve the circus look! It's just like being under The Big Top!

      I saw something totally different in my mind's eye, Janet, but it still turned out okay. Thank you.
