WALKING WITH ELEPHANTS

Hellooooo, I put away my art journal for a while & had a play with some ~TANDO~ chippy!  Now I am going to be very self indulgent now but I am excited :-D  but I am so thrilled with the way these elephants turned out and its so exciting to be working on something that I designed...whooo!!!!  When I drew them I worked it so that the trunks & tails would come together so they looked like they do in real life.  Not that these look anything but real hahahaha

I gesso'd them before sticking the beads on, using my favourite method of threading the beads before dropping them into the glue.  Then I simply smothered them with glossy accents & dropped alcohol inks into it!  Easy peasy...bright elephants hahaha!  I kept the canvas simple with just a little paint, stamping & co-ordinating chippie from my stash.  The elephant actually comes as part of a set including a cute hippo & a cheeky lion...

... and in 2 sizes.  Great for a kiddies room!  If you fancy these little fellas or any of Tando's brilliant chipboard then take a look ~HERE~ fro stockists.  Thank you so much for taking a look today, take care HUGS XXX
