A Tall Tale.....FMS248





I love these sweet giraffe die cuts and I am thinking I subconsciously designed my sketch so I could use them again!  They are perfect for a wedding or anniversary card!  I used Serene Scenery DSP for them as well as the background along with images from Birthday Banners and Timeless Textures.

Miss Emma toured Animal Land this past week and met one of these fabulous creatures!








 I am excited to be hosting this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  I have some amazingly talented teammates who have made my sketch look terrific with their wonderful cards!

Hope you get a chance to play along - I'd love to see what you create!


An exciting week of fun and challenges is also happening right now at Splitcoast Stampers!  It is Dare to Get Dirty Challenge Week 2016!  This card was also made for Dina Kowal's challenge.  Check out the challenges and galleries!
