My mom was a true lover of giraffes and all thing giraffes. When she passed away, and my sisters and I cleaned out her house, I collected MANY pieces of her vast collection. The figurines are all over my house. I have one picture that I took, the only picture I remember seeing(if you don't count the cross stitched giraffes I made for her, which, yes, I do now have)...
My granddaughter, Isla, who is 8 years old, has loved this picture since she was really little. When I saw this adorable new Simon Says Stamp, stamp/die set, from their In My Heart release, I KNEW I had to make a Mother's Day card for Isla to give her mom(my daughter)...otherwise I would give to her! They don't live nearby, but are on their way, today, to visit for a couple weeks, so the timing is perfect! I combined the stamp/die set with a Simon stencil, to complete the giraffe theme...
I stamped, die cut, then colored the giraffes. I layered them and stamped the sentiment on the panel. I used a dark cream colored piece of cardstock(a wonderful scrap), and brushed on the light brown ink. Here's a close up...
Thank you so much for visiting me today!!
