The big difference is that Elizabeth was talking to Mary directly - she was not praying to her after she was dead... And the Hail Mary is a bit different, in that Elizabeth did not ask Mary to pray for her. So while a part of that ritual comes from Scripture, not all of it does.

Except catholics have turned it into a false title for Mary.
