And just a quick mention about the Blog Hop: there is a $25 shopping spree (and FREE shipping) being rewarded to one lucky hopper who visits and posts a comment on each Design Team Members' blog, and the QKR Stampede Blog. Be sure to visit the QKR Stampede Blog for ways to get extra chances in the drawing.

Now for today's post, this card was inspired by, and is a CASE (copy and share everything) of, a card posted at Papertrey Ink; I really liked the simplicity of the card and thought this stamp set would be a good substitute. The stamp set I used is Giraffe Party, by Memory Box, and the sentiment is from the Fundamental Phrases set by Stampin' Up!

The giraffe image was stamped on scrapbook paper (retired from Stampin' Up!), cut out, and adhered to the card with pop dots. The leaves and "hillside" were colored with Prisma watercolor pencils and blended with the use of a blender pen. Memento Summer Sky ink was used to sponge the edges to represent the sky. As always, thanks for stopping by! Have a GREAT day!!
