Birdie Brown’s Sweater Weather On Safari… I am so in love with this cute giraffe! I shared a card a few days ago showcasing the BB Sweater Weather In The Woods stamp set. (found here.) I still had my Copic Markers out, so I stamped and colored this little guy for a clean and simple card. I used the following Copic Markers for the sweater and die-cut stripes: Green: YG91, YG95, YG97, YG99; Yellow: Y21, Y23, YR23, E33; Burnt Orange: E47, E09, E07
The inlaid colored stripes were made with the new Skinny Stripes- Horizontal Die-namics. After I had die-cut the stripes, I trimmed the white card stock with a stitched rectangle die-namics, then attached a smaller panel of paper behind it. This allowed me to glue the stripes back into place. I stamped the sentiment before attaching the panel to a card base with foam adhesive.
To finish the card, I used the heart die from the Bundle Of Baby Clothes Die-namics to die-cut Persimmon card stock. I attached the giraffe to the card with thin foam squares, then added the cute heart above the coffee cup. I added a bit of shimmer and Crystal Glaze for my final touch.
