Today is going to be another VERY hot day here!! I don't know how people without air conditioning can stand it!! I'm so thankful I don't work outside, like the guys out in front of the library pouring cement right now.....ick!!
Anyway, I wanted to share this card with you, that sorta has that African feel!! I just LOVE the SU set, Wild About You and this card I created for one of my classes.
I started out by using Close to Cocoa for the base and then stamping the small circles from Seeing Spots on the upper half and the larger circles on the bottom half, in CTCocoa. The strip across the middle is Ruby Red with the sentiment stamped on it in CTC. I stamped the giraffe in Summer Sun on Whisper White cardstock and matted on Ruby Red and Summer Sun cardstock. I then used my 1/16th punch to make two holes on the upper right side and added some linen thread, which I think added to the African feel! A simple card but an eyecatcher! And I think the little boys in my life will love it!!
Now don't forget about my challenge!! I only have 3 entries so far, so you'd better get stampin'!! You have until midnight on Friday night!! Heehee!!
