Giraffe cards
Hi friends, I hope you all had a lovely Mother's
day yesterday. I had a great day with lots of
flowers/plants/chocs/wine/cards and saw my lovely
children and grandchildren of course.
I have a couple of cards to show you today.
I made the grey one first and wasn't happy
about it....kept trying but just wasn't working.
Showing you it anyway....then I tried again
with the same image. Much happier this time.
I wanted to get the Giraffe peeking out from
the frame. I think the bit of embossing/chalking
helped too.
I still struggle a bit with one layer cards.
Sorry the pic is a tad dark but the embossing
wouldn't show otherwise.
Anyway I wish you all a good week,
whatever you have planned ;)

Both cards are stunning Viv. The giraffe is so cute and I really love the embossed frame design and delicate touches of blue.
Glad you had a lovely time with your family yesterday.

You don't need to worry about one layer card Viv! These are both AMAZING. Such a talented lady. If you haven't already zipped across you might also like to link up at AAA Cards as we are looking for similar cards their too. Thanks for playing along at LIM. Sarah x
Love them both, although I do really like the grey one. You can really "do" CAS. so well.
Viv you have two fabulous creations here, I do love the stylised simplicity of the grey one!

Two lovely cards Viv, I love the white on the grey, it works really well. Love him popping out of the frame too. I got wine and chocs too, definitely a winning combination:)

They both look good to me Viv... but I think you're right about the grey on white....it does work so well!
I was also spoiled on Sunday... taken out to lunch by my daughter and boyfriend... then all back to ours for my lovely OH to cook our roast later on. Neils Yard smellies and flowers too... a lovely day!

Love both your cards, but that grey card is the one really doing it for me! Thanks for playing at AAA Cards.
They are both GOrgeous! Such a sweet image too.
