Another Giraffe lol.

 Morning and time for the mid month(already!) inspiration for the Cute Critters/ATG challenge at Stamping Sensations-which is sadly our last challenge.

I used the Giraffe stamp and sentiment from Pink Ink, coloured with promarkers, sentiment die from Tonic, stencils from Creative Expressions and My Favourite Things. Circle and scallop die from The Works. B, paper was an oddment in stash and I added glossy accents onto the sunglasses. Pretty straightforward you might think-WRONG-this pretty simple card took me a full and I mean full after-noon-I cut an aperture in a card then realised I needed the p, paper, so added paper to another card and cut another aperture, stamped the image onto the offcut-slightly off so stamped another then die-cut. Stamped and cut out glasses, added glossy accents and left to dry, caught them with my sleeve, so another pair stamped and cut-when I finished the card thought they were dry-wrong -so another pair stamped and cut then left to dry all night! Fluffed the colouring on the giraffes eye lashes, but by this time and as the image was already stuck down thought it will pass. I also cut the giraffes lower face and ears from the first image and put them on 3-D foam.



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
