Shall we all go off together somewhere warm?
It was forecast as being warmer today but I can't say I noticed when we went shopping. Tomorrow is forecast as being very cold!!!
I have even been using cool colours to make another journal page for Rike's 'Animals A from to Z' theme at Art Journal Journey!
I used a couple of new Distress Oxides - Blueprint Sketch and Shaded Lilac along with Twisted Citron to make my background and then used Blueprint Sketch DI and Lettuce and Denim (discontinued) Adirondack inks to stamp randomly over the top!
My elephant is one of my favourite Tracy Easson stamps and was stamped onto some card and fussy cut, then stuck over the same image that I had stamped on the page so I didn't loose the detailed edges. I drew in some extra grass.
The quotes are some from a Visible Image set.
I looked up the meaning of 'white elephant' and put it into my Print Shop programme - I don't think this cute elephant could ever be useless or troublesome!
I finished my page by doodling around the edge and by the dictionary meaning.
Thanks for looking, Chris

I actually adore your white elephant, your play on words, and your snazzy journal page. I have a bunch of white elephants and none are as adorable as yours. Thanks for sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey, too, dear Chris.
Wonderful page, your elephant is very cute. It's freezing here, and rained over night, so will probably be slippery outside. Have a nice Sunday, hugs, Valerie
I love your white elephant on this amazing page Chris! Thanks for sharing it with us at Art Journal Journey again - I apprecaite it so much!

What a beautiful page with a fabulous meaning! I used the google translator to know what white elephant means in German. Your white elephant is surely no "white elephant" :)
Your background is wonderful, and I especially like your fine doodling on the whole page, and the bold words!
Thank you for linking such a fantastic entry to Art Journal Journey!

This is a white elephant no one would object to :) What a great page illustrating that term :)
I love your white elephant page Chris! Been a chilly day here, and we got snowed on when we went out walking.
