Well it is still Tuesday SOMEwhere, and I wanted to get my card in for Alex - if you want to see her story please go to this post
I took a lighthearted approach and did a single giraffe in punch art, inspired by Jenny's card HERE who was inspired by Lee Ann's card HERE (sorry Mudder, no time for any fancy schmancy stuff, misbehaving giraffes or fashion designer giraffes)
I took it a little different direction by creating a leafy tree scene behind and having the giraffe popping out of the popped up BG - I also worked the punches out a little bit different, used googlie eyes, a button,and a branch in his mouth, with a personal sentiment for the front - inside just says "to see how you're doing!"
Hope she doesn't think this is too much like a small child's card - I was just going for something upbeat and cute to make her smile -
Thanks for looking!
Punchkateers - take note - 20 punchez!!!
