A giraffe for Emma!.........

This was the third in a trio of cards that I made for Debbie, my hubby's secretary. Apparently Emma loves giraffes, so that was my brief for this card. It's a biggun! A4 again. I used papers from Papermania with leaves and wood effects on them. The layout is simple with a central panel holding the cuts. I wrapped some pretty leaf shaped ribbon around the bottom of the centre panel then added the giraffe, cut from two shades of Bazill cardstock with a little chalk shading for definition. 'Emma' and '18' were cut from DCWV glittercard and adhered to the card with foam pads. I added a branch and some punched flowers to add a little femininity to the card. A smattering of pearls completes the card.
Carts used:
Giraffe- ZooBalloo
Emma & 18- Base Camp
Branch- Serenade
I'm hosting a Swarm tomorrow and I have a request to the ladies who are coming, from Lorraine. She has mislaid her Sweethearts cartridge and wonders if someone picked it up by mistake at a previous Swarm, and asks that if it was you could you please bring it along tomorrow? Thanks.
Thanks for dropping by today!
