Boy, I learned a lot today, and the main thing I learned was, "Punch Art ain't for sissies"! Today's TSC challenge was issued by Carrollann (MrsBoz), who is a master crafter when it comes to punch art! CA, I bow to you, and will stay in my "Sissy Corner" Lol!
My friend is having a lil boy whose room is safari themed, and she loves black and white. The zebra was made from the SU bird punch, and SU oval. The leaves (used for stripes and eyes) are from a MS punch. Here is the gift that matches the card.
Thanks for looking.

Oh my gosh, Pat, just catching up a little tonight finally, but SOOOOO glad I got here to see this!!! You weren't kidding about "punch art ain't for sissies", but you did a terrific job on this ZEBRA!! Didn't miss a single thing on him, not even those googlie eyes!
Your card has the softest baby look to it, with the flowers, the DP, the buttons - but, all boy though, with the addition of that sweet zebra! Sure this card will be saved forever in his Baby Book - one his Mom will cherish!
Ya done good, Sistah!! Kudos on the punch art!!
