Hey guys, thanks for taking a minute to visit with me, I love sharing with you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her is my creation for the Global Design Project<\/a><\/span><\/strong> sketch challenge #GSP202. It was inspired by the need for a birthday card for my nephew, using a super fun stamp set called Animal Outing and its coordinating dies Animal Friends. I love how fun this card turned out, it is somewhat interactive in that the Happy Birthday sentiment tag moves because it is attached with loose metallic brad. I’m told he loved the card, so in my book, it is a success!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a thing for giraffes, just love them. At our local zoo, the kids and I used to get big kicks out of feeding these crazy tall mammals with ridiculously long, skinny black tongues. I have another attraction to this super cute freakishly tall fellow, the giraffe is the mascot of my family! As I am quickly becoming the runt (at 5′-8″) of my household! My husband is 6′-9″, my 14 year old son is 6′-4″ and my daughter is about 5′-4″ and quickly gaining on me, with plenty of time to grow above and beyond me. So you see where I am going with this, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I sigh heavily, lets just get started, the card base is a half sheet of Crumb Cake Card stock, cut to 4-1\/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1\/2″ creating a top fold card. All of the DSP used is retired, unfortunately, such cute patterns. At least the stamp set is still with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used crushed curry as a mat and as the banner tag. The giraffe and frog on a branch images were stamped in crumb cake on pieces of Whisper White then colored with water color pencils. From scraps of Crumb Cake cardstock, Call Me Clover and the retired Lemon Lime Twist card stock, I used the coordinating dies to cut the branches of leaves the giraffe is enjoying for a meal. The tag attached with the metal brad is a retired set called Cute Crew Punch Box. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
