Hi bloggers! I stamped and cut out two of the Giraffe dies. I nipped the giraffe out of both frames, then proceeded to make a new frame for them. I used the Cut Corner Rectangles and cut the frame out of tan card. I glued the two giraffes inside the framw, then added mounting foam to the back of the frame. Next I used the In Awhile Crocodile stencil and taped it to a piece of milk card. I used Antique Linen Distress Oxide ink through the mask. I taped the stencilled piece to the frame with the Giraffes in it. I cut a larger piece of milk card and used one of Sam Poole' dies to add detail under the frame. I used the Cheesecloth background die cut in milk card. I added the frame over it and added my sentiment in the lower corner. I used a sentiment from the Wild About You clear stamp set and cut it or with the Safari Tags die set. I inked it with Antique Linen while it was still in the die. I added a few leaves around the frmae and they were cut from the Tropical Flora die set. The card was completed with milk mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x

Good Morning Sue and all
Another beautiful card.
I do love the way you give the animals from the set to each have their own personality.
The background is quite soothing and I think the two Giraffes are both female and very proud.
Thank you Sue and Have a nice day.

Good morning Sue,
A truly spectacular card today with your beautiful giraffes. Yvonne xx
Good Morning Sue. Absolutely beautiful. Stunning sample ... I love anything with the African/Safari theme. Just such a shame all these beautiful animals are dwindling down in numbers in real life. But here we can have as many as we want ... I just wish you could spread your magic in the real world ... as you do in parycraft world ... Wouldn't that be great . Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds
