The September Crazy Critter Challenge is live now and as part of the Design Team, I've selected Lee Holland's 'Cute Giraffe' to share with you today.
For this card I sized the Cute Giraffe to about 3" tall and shifted him to the left of my card design space. Then I typed the sentiment on the right - 'Thank You for your kindness'. After printing on Neenah 110# cardstock, I colored the image with my Copic markers.
I used Gina Marie Designs Nested Scalloped Stitched Rectangle for the decorative edging on the image and also on the plaid matting. I trimmed a coordinating brown solid cardstock to about 1/8" larger than the image size.
The card base is a standard white A2 size. I secured the layers as shown, plaid bottom matting, brown attached to the image, then secured to the card base.
This is a great image for lots of occasions like so many of Lee Hollands are. Be sure to check out his listings too!
