Dare to be different



This card is for all those people who march to the beat of their own drum! I consider myself Abby....Abby-Normal. One of the great lines from a classic movie Young Frankenstein!

It is week 7 of the Hambo Hoedown Challenge! This cute little Party Elephant is the image for those who played along last week! I liked it so much..I decided to do three of them! This week we were supposed to use sparkly things! I added some Stickles to the hat of the wacky elephant and found these delicious glitter brads to use for some extra BLING! LOVIN IT! To add even more fun...I put sparkles on the toe nails...Do elephants have toe nails??? Or is there some other term for them???

If you didn't play along this past week to receive this Party Elephant digi for free, you can get him over at Hambo Stamps...SO YOU CAN PLAY ALONG THIS WEEK! And you know you want to add this one to your collection!

The Designer Paper is some I found in a pack by K & Company. It is kinda wacky, but I thought it would work perfectly for this card!

Copic Colors Used:
Pink Elephant: R81, R83, R85
Gray Elephants: C00, C0, C1, C2
Blue Green Hat: YG93, YG95; B02, B04, B05 (can't really see it under the glitter!)
Pink Hats: RV000, R81, R83
