You Having a Giraffe?

 Morning and time for a new "Cute Critters"/ATG challenge at Stamping Sensations which was chosen by Anesha and  sadly after 16years this will be our last challenge.

There are four die sets and printed reflections prizes from Highlight Crafts.



I used the Giraffe stamp, sentiment and foliage stamp from Pink Ink, coloured with promarkers, die-cut leaves I have had for years and think they were a craft mag freebie and coloured with Distress ink. Background stencil from Creative Expressions and an oddment of paper which only needed a half inch cutting off from Crafters Companion. Corners rounded with a very neglected X Cut punch.


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

What an adorable bit of humor in your giraffe card, and the tall image with the perfectly blended yellow and brown tones stands out so well against the crisp layered panels while the playful sentiment adds a fun finishing touch that suits the theme perfectly.
