A few weeks ago, I found the perfect printed paper in my stash for the tropical island teapot. Guess what? I found perfect giraffe paper in my stash as well. Actually, it's from the same set as the glittery palm tree I used a few weeks ago. The best part is the pink giraffe print -- If you look closely at it, you'll see there are giraffes hidden in the print.
The main giraffe is glittery; I added a wide piece of ribbon -- after all, the star of this story is a famous designer, right?

Fantastic bg paper - it is just perfect. Isn't it nice when you find something that had been forgotten and then when you find it it has an immediate use.
Great card.

Oh wow - you really did have the right paper! The little giraffe with the brick wall is cute, but the background paper is really fascinating. It reminds me of some wooden jigsaws I have where a few of the pieces are shaped like objects relating to the overall picture.
