Having A Giraffe.

Morning and I have made a card using a stamp set from Pink Ink  and stamped onto a smooched background I made earlier with  Oxide inks, the added black lines are from a Carabelle stamp set-matted onto black cardstock.

Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

So funny, Carol!!! Placing the giraffe upside down like he bent his head down to look at folks is just super cute! Thanks for sharing at Critter Crazy #101!! -- Becca

Lisa said...

This card is pure joy, Carol! The smooshed Oxide background feels like a playful splash of safari sunshine, and that upside-down giraffe steals the show with its quirky charm and fabulous lashes. The black Carabelle lines add such a cool graphic edge—like a frame for this cheeky little scene. You’ve created something that’s both stylish and smile-inducing!
