As soon as I saw the first of Cindy's thumbs this morning, I knew I wanted to make a black and white Bargello background for my card - but I'm afraid my giraffe has ended up covering most of it up. It did look so like the photo before I added the giraffe, you just have to believe me .
A2 pink Bazzill base. Bargello background made with black and white card, cut with Labels 8 and stuck to the base. Lots of stitching lines added.
Giraffe is from Autumn Leaves, stamped on Bristol Board and coloured with pencils. Layered on pink, more stitching added.
Sentiment from Lots of Thoughts punched and more stitching lines added. I added two pompoms just in case my giraffe feels like joining in with any other cheerleaders who might be at the party this week.
