Rosemary the Giraffe

Photo Details

Poster: TheresaCC

This card is for the Ways to Use it Challenge - Spice it Up. I used Rosemary leaves to create grass.

The background is mostly watercolored, with some sponging. I colored the giraffe with Koh-i-noor pencils and blended it with OMS, then heat embossed it with clear.

Thanks for looking!
