Geoffrey Giraffe – Card making

Hi everyone,

I have another a card made with the new stamps from Crafty Individuals designed by Ellie Mulligan. It is very hard to choose a favourite out of the new stamps but I am rather partial to the giraffe stamp. He has such an adorable face.

I created the background using a geli plate and paint. I then repeatedly stamped the wording over the background piece. I do like geli plates. They are a lot of fun. Might have a session this afternoon. A bit of fun crafting works wonders.

I stamped the giraffe onto coated card stock, coloured the image and cut it out. I did cut off his main. I tried to cutting it all out and didn’t like so chopped it off completely. I used a black sharpie to add the main details after I had mounted the cut out piece onto my card stock.

Stamped in black stazon onto coated cardstock and coloured with diluted distess inks and a paint brush.

Stamps used: Happy Giraffe (Ellie Mulligan Designs) CI 564

Thanks for looking.

Take care,

Flo x
