Giraffe

Hi Everyone, my card today was for my sassy Great Great Niece who was 2 years old a few days ago. I love these giraffes that I have had for years, I print and cut a couple of layers and the "2" with the Cameo and added them to the card as 3D layers. The butterfly was also done with a couple of layers added to the card and then I drew the antennae. 

I added sparkle on the edge, between the background layers. A few flowers and butterflies were die cut and added with a "few" gems on top of them. After I had added them, I thought should I have? maybe little fingers after them! However I know her parents will make sure she is safe and doesn't fiddle! It's a simply made card, and I hope she liked it?

This is a beautiful bright and cheery fun card for a child .Well done. I guess it is something to think about though when adding embellishments to children's cards and hopefully parents supervise when child is handling their card .Thanks for reminding me .

OMGosh Faith, this is just the cutest card for your sassy great niece! I love how you layered the butterfly and giraffes, they are so pretty! Love how soft the colors are too. Then there is that big 2, love the shape of it and the color of it. The little gems are so sweet and yes, I would have thought about little fingers too, but I'm sure her parents will make sure she can't pluck them off. lol A really sweet card Faith, a really adorable card!
