Happy Saturday, I hope you are well.
Yesterday I had a visit from some friends who I haven't seen for quite some time. It was lovely to see them all. We exchanged belated birthday presents, and as they know of my love of giraffes, my presents included some gorgeous giraffe pyjamas. I want to send them a thank you card, so last night sat down and created this card.
I'm ashamed to say I've had this lofty stamp set for a long time and it has barely been used. It seemed very appropriate for the card.
All the images are from the same stamp sheet and were coloured with Lyra's. The lovely backing paper is from Joanna Sheen's Eastern Treasures cd-rom, and I printed it onto pearlescent paper.
I really like this style of card but find it really difficult to make. I coverred it with the backing paper and then added a punched border, made using a Martha Stewart punch. The frame is a Marianne die cut from gold mirror card.
I am entering my card in the following challenges:
