Challenge #84 ~ Tic Tac Toe

Hello Crafty Divas,
 
Glad you stopped by today. I want to let you know that there will be some temporary changes to our challenge site. I originally was going to close down the site indefinitely then I thought maybe only until January, but the team and I decided to make adjustments for the next 3 months and keep the challenges available.
 
The first change will be the Design Team will have flexibilty on submitting projects for each challenge. Life has been busy and we want to continue crafting and have fun without the stress and deadlines at this time.
 
The second change will be prizes will be on hold until January. I have been extremely busy with school, so I would like some extra time to collect sponsorship and donations. Our winner's badge will be available, which we hope you will still display proudly.
 
The final change may be the Showcase on Friday, which may be discontinued. We are still discussing since this has all been very sudden.

Challenge #83: Elephant

Good Morning,
 
We have a new jumbo-sized Die Cuttin' Diva challenge this week and we sure hope you will share your card, layout, or altered project.
 
The Challenge...
Create a project using an elephant
 
Background Information...
Elephant Appreciation Day was declared beginning in 1996 by WildHeart® Productions to celebrate the Elephant

When: September 22

Origin of Elephant Appreciation Day:  Mission Media Inc. created in 1996, largely because elephants are....large (and a whole lot of other great things). The founder, Wayne Hepburn, received a paperweight of elephants on parade from his daughter as a gift. He became fascinated by them. He amassed a huge collections of elephant books and paraphernalia. His fascination and love of elephants, led to the creation of this day so you and I can stop and enjoy this huge, lumbering beast.
