Sparkle Elephant Zip Tote - Navy

I gasped when we printed this bright blue ink for the first time. In my head, this Indian elephant was beautiful with a raised trunk and decorative blanket on its back. I was excited about using the colorful tactile ink with the glitter in it to add additional dimension. What I didn’t know was how beautiful the print would come out with the combination of the color, the glitter and the details of the art. (Of course, I was using an enormous amount of light to be able to see it -so to me the sparkle was just WOWZA!) The elephant is walking forward with its trunk happily up in the air and its tusk facing upwards. There are long flapping ears and a waving tail. The elephant is decorated in traditional Indian style with pretty design motifs. The elephant has a blanket on its back. The blanket has a big floral design on it. All of these elements are completely tactile when you see this print with your hands. Underneath the elephant are the words “courage*strength*wisdom in grade 1 braille. In case you don’t read braille or forget what the words are, we are going to include a braille alphabet card from the American printing house in your package. We also think it will be fun if you pick one of our braille only prints to send to a friend, who will have fun decoding the braille if they are not braille readers.  I did this print with a nod  to my friend Pooja Punjabi, whose family is from Punjab, India. Many of you know Pooja and her husband Cosimo from national conventions. Pooja has been remarkably supportive in my life journey, particularly when the journey turned to blindness. She has been so supportive throughout the five years of Blind Girl Designs, and is still cheering us on  to this day. This tote is 15 inch by 20 inch full zip canvas bag with a folder bottom so it can sit upright and a zip pocket on the inside as well! It has generous strap, so you can swing over your shoulder. Do not wash bag.
