Karen, I don't have an elephant but I sure have lots of colors to play with. My head is starting to turn with ideas. Great inspiration piece. Thanks!

Kittie - my card doesn't use elephants (and I have them)...I just loved the idea of color next to black and white.
Remember folks, your card does *not* need to be a replica, just have fun with what you see!
I'll be away today (being a helper elf to my mom the demo - two stamp camps in one day!) but will check the postings at lunch and tonight.
Have fun!!

Wow, there are tons of possibilities here. Which way do I go, which way do I go. I better think about this for a bit first.

I'm going to have to put my brain to work on this while I'm at my kids' cross country meet this morning and put my hands to work when I get back.
Great illustration--I love Elmer.

Oh, that picture is too funny! I laughed out loud. All I could see was elephants in quilts! Hope I get a chance to play today. Thanks, Karen.

I was up for the challenge! I used the layout and the color scheme to make a 6x6 scrapbook page. Enjoy:

Love this one, Karen--so bright and colorful. I was caught by all the colored checks so headed straight for my checked backgrounder.

I already had the Cowboy kid set out and just got this new Sizzix horse die this morning.
Don't know if I like this card at all but here you go:

This was not a fun challenge for me today. I spent way too much time trying to get my card to work and finally decided to go with a clean look. Here's my

Oh I love the illustration! I have four elephant cards in my gallery, made from a computer graphic. Maybe tomorrow I can make a new version.

I should have looked at the illustration again before doing my card. Mine is kind of in left field...
It is not really what I had visualized, but will put it here anyway. Please be kind! I have a lot of trouble with this challenge, but it was fun trying.
I did triplets instead of twins - just seemed like a better plan.
