Pink Elephant Day...

Hmmmmmmmmm, my elephant isn't pink, but check out those toenails! This week at TPE we are being sponsored by Dustin Pike and as he does the most amazing digi images of all kinds of animals we decided that our theme should be just that.

ANIMALS - so get out your stamps, stickers etc or better still pop over to Dustin's Digi store and treat yourself to some of his work. He really has the most fabulous designs and some great collections on special offer. For inspiration and to see Dustin's digis in action check out his blog - HERE.

My image was coloured with Promarkers and then I added touches of glitter to the hat and cake. I also used a Promarker to colour the ribbon to match the image - first time I've done that and it really is super easy and super effective. The borders were made using a Cuttlebug border die and then I added gems for that extra birthday sparkle.

I seem to be getting a bit carried away with the amount of gems I'm using lately - I need to find a cheap supplier or win the lottery. Preferably the latter!
