Nopaw, an elemental Semblance would be incredibly lame because everyone else could buy your Semblance at the store. And no, don't say "Unlike Dust, this would be unlimited." Miles has actually said that Aura is fuel for Semblance, meaning that you can't just keep spamming your Semblance infinitely. Weiss even got tired out after all the glyphs she made in Players and Pieces. You can see her double over, panting, when Ruby starts to run up the cliff.

I highly, highly doubt they made her Semblance be fire or whatever.

The easiest, simplest, and most likely explanation is, quite simply, Dust. We've already been told that people can sew Dust into their clothes and put Dust inside of their body and use it as a weapon that way.
