welcome Little One...

Good morning everyone!

Today is the start of a new challenge at Sparkles Monthly and our theme is Babies...  
I decided to do something a little different this time and create a inky background instead of using DP. I used Victorian Velvet and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide inks- I really like these two colors together :) The cute giraffe is from Vera Lane Studio and it's colored with Copics. I used a Pink & Main die for the stitched rectangle, a MFT die for the sun, a Lawn Fawn die for the grass and a Avery Elle die for the clouds.

 Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to pop on over to the main challenge blog to check out the rest of the teams beautiful cards! 
Take care... Tammy x

2 Crafty Critter CraziesAnything Goes with a Critter
Craft RocketUse Dies and/or Spring
Pearly Sparkles- Must use a Digi
Time Out- Different (I don't usually create a inky background for a baby card)

What an awesomely adorable card!

Fun fact: In short bursts, giraffes can run as fast as 35 miles an hour. You wouldn't necessarily assume that given their lofty stature and overall large size, but it's true and is one of many things that make these long-necked critters so unique.
