I have a thing for giraffes. Yes, I would visit the zoo just to see the giraffes. *LOL*
Naturally, I got very excited when I saw this giraffe embossing folder in my friend Karen's stash....:)
I coloured the raised portions with Copics....added some Cosmo Cricket patterned paper, some Gauche Alchemy Ouchless Cardboard, googly eye and SRM sticker 'thanks' sentiment.
Inspired by the challenge at These are a few of my favorite things - thank you cards.
_____________________________________________________________
I want to say thanks to my friend Julie Tucker-Wolek who gave me this award! :)
I'm supposed to list 3 things that make me different.
1. I'm not afraid of creepy crawlies! Ideally, I would love to have a piece of tissue between my bare hand and said creepy crawlies but I'm totally okay with actually touching them.
3. I can sleep in any moving vehicle (as long as I'm not driving). Really. On planes. On buses. Even standing while on a train...:)
Okay, I'm passing this award to 5 other bloggers...
*Edited* This card was featured in the Cards Challenge Gallery for Thank You cards! :)

The first animal my son drew when he was little, was a giraffe!!! Not a cat or dog, no, a giraffe! He did many of those drawings later, and we still have some of his giraffe-drawings. I find them cute and with those memories in mind, giraffes always make me smile!
