The cute little giraffe image is from Joanna Sheen (Little Suzy's Zoo JS632 - Fun in the Sun) and I coloured it with pencils. I die-cut into an oval, doodled stitching around the edge, and mounted on a brown label. For the card itself, I covered a cream base with brown cardstock, onto which I layered jungle-print paper. Next I mounted an embossed cream panel onto kraft cardstock (the bottom of which I border-punched), added a strip of decorative brown ribbon, and affixed to the card. I stamped the sentiment on kraft cardstock and affixed to the card. For accents, I added a burlap butterfly sticker, onto which I layered a punched butterfly, and added another punched butterfly on the sentiment. Lastly I added a number of brown gems. Here are the supplies used:
- Stamps: Giraffe (Joanna Sheen - Little Suzy's Zoo JS632 - Fun in the Sun), sentiment (dollar store)
- Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
- Colour pencils: Prismacolor
- Dies: Nellie's Multiframes - Ovals, Spellbinders Labels Eighteen
- Punches: Border punch (Fiskars), butterfly (EK Success)
- Embossing folder: Cuttlebug Animal Prints
- Black marker: Staedtler (for doodled stitching)
- Burlap sticker: Little Yellow Bicycle Naturals
- Cardstock: Stampin' Up! (kraft), Staples (cream), Dollarama (brown)
- Patterned paper: Recollections
- Gems, ribbon: Dollar store

What a fun card! Made me smile!
Stopped by your blog to give you the email address for Dearie Dolls
deariedolls@gmail.com
The little squirrel I used on my card was a free download from the old Dearie Dolls blog. I checked the new site but didn't see it posted there. I also searched for the old blog, but couldn't find it. If you send Dearie Dolls a email with a link to my card (so she can see which digi it is) I am sure she can help you find the download link.
Hope you have a great day!

This is super. Love the detail and textures you used. Tx for visiting my blog.
For changing the colour of the digi: I normally work in Office power point to re-size my images, then after selecting the image you go to format on the top left, then you select recolour, where you choose your colour. Hope you get it right.
Have a super day!
