This gift set is just beautiful. I positively LOVE these! So will your sister! (I used to live in East Africa, right on the ocean, so I love the palm trees, too.) There's such a great balance between the green and black; gives it lots of punch.
Question, though: Did you stamp it in black and color in with markers or what? And is there green on the background?
I have this stamp set; now I must get the safari background. The word "safari" is a Swahili word meaning "trip" or "journey." Did you know that?
Thanks for sharing!

I stamped palm tree in Basic Black & watercolored with an Aquapainter. The background is the frosted technique with Mellow Moss and Old Olive. I typed out the instructions on another one of my cards. Here is the link: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I lived in South Africa for 3 years...so I miss the palm trees, the African wildlife, and the "Safari's".
