This is kind of a crazy card. I think it all started from wanting to try the faux leather technique that my sister told me about. It looks like giraffe skin and I just received my new Gigi Giraffe Stamp. So off I went......
Was a fun challenge, thanks Julia! Hope the mini frames, mini giraffe, mini squares on the border, mini dew drop, mini lady bug are considered mini's for this WT. lol
So, everything evolved around the faux leather bg. Check it out in the resources gallery. After stamping my images and coloring with re-inkers they were versa marked and clear ep'd. I cut out the openings for the head and body. Made the frames that I popped up on front. Sponged the edges after I stamped the squares.
Made the larger frame using my coluzzle. Sponged edges and popped up. Lady bug was cut out with the circle punch. Well, that's about it. TFL :0)

I don't know how but I nearly missed this gorgeous card Cathy! Love that faux leather technique and it's perfect with the giraffe. Brilliant concept card. Love the mini frames and as always your perfect job of sponging. Great WOW card!
