Giraffe at Sunset

Photo Details

Poster: Rox71

My first card using the On Safari background, it works well with the other stamps and wheel. I chalked/pastels on the wheel design for the folded back strip and the brads only go through the top layer. A stamp positioner came in handy once again for the giraffe print because the image is only a 2 inches square. I did some sponging on the edges.

I like this, and the brads worked in so well with the African pattern. Cool, cool card!
