  8. This is REALLY cute, Melissa. Although, I'd have to say....I'd be a little confused if I went to Africa on a tour of the Serengeti, and saw the elephants grazing by the water STACKED ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER....LOL - that made me giggle!! Thanks for being light-hearted and creative in your art, it makes it so much more fun that way! I greatly appreciate your wonderful creations shared in various challenges. Have a blessed week.
