Hello friends. I'm so glad you could visit.
I'm joining in at the Twofer Challenge today.
I didn't think I had any zoo animals, but then I remembered
this sweet giraffe stamp.
One of my daughters needed baby cards last time she was here and
I need to replenish my supply. So my onefer is a baby card.
I colored this with Copic markers.
For my twofer, I went with a get well card.
Sorry it looks crooked. I think my doodling went awry.
I had some fun using stencils and embossing paste for
CAS Stencil so I popped this giraffe on one of those backgrounds.
This one was colored with Distress Markers and a waterbrush.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!Google

That's an awesome detailed giraffe image, Bonnie, and you've done a masterful job of coloring him! Two sweet occasions to use him for with your baby card and your get well card! BTW, cool embossed stencil background on that feel better card!! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #15! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteBonnie, that giraffe is so adorable Bonnie, he has the sweetest face. Two cute cards and love the stencilling as a background frame :)
ReplyDeleteOhh Bonnie, what a sweet image on your beautiful Twofers!!!
ReplyDeleteThat Giraffe is just the sweetest, what a face!! Love it.
And I agree, the stencil you used for your second card is totally awesome.
Have a fabulous Sunday.

Absolutely wonderful! Love this idea - great to find several uses for a stamp :-) Love your moulding paste, too ;-)

Oh do I LOVE the IO giraffe image you used Bonnie...he is so dang CUTE and you've colored him beautifully in both cards too! He's perfect for a baby card and wonderful on your get well card as well! LOVE your background on the get well card too! Two wonderful cards my friend!! :0)
ReplyDeleteTwo adorable cards and how could you go wrong with that sweet face! Your coloring of him is awesome and I love that embossing paste frame. I don't notice crooked as it is my middle name.
ReplyDeleteBonnie, such an adorable giraffe for your twofer cards. Beautifully colored and watercolored, too. Fantastic cards...
ReplyDeleteWhat a delight to see these beautiful cards. I LOVE your colouring and desing.

What an adorable image and fabulous to use it in two very different ways x The face on the giraffe is perfect for the baby card and I think the way you've angled the image on the get well card lends itself to feeling 'unwell'....Hopefully that makes sense? x Great colouring on both and the stencil paste on the second looks terrific. Creative and super cute cards Bonnie x.
ReplyDeleteLovely image and he looks so different how you've coloured him on each card. Love the doodling on the second card. xx
ReplyDeleteHe is adorable, Bonnie! Your doodling is wonderful and I don't see crooked at all. Love the embossing paste background- so fun to do as well as the soft blue for the baby card! Your coloring is so well done too!
ReplyDeleteTwo super cute cards, Bonnie! Just love that giraffe image and you made great use of it! How sweet to put a bow on her neck for a baby card!!
ReplyDeleteOh my, Bonnie...your coloring of both giraffe's were stunning, my friend. Your CAS cards turned out beautifully for different occasions. TFS Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet image Bonnie and I love how you have used it - you have really rocked the challenge!

I love giraffes Bonnie and love what you've done with both of these cards, adorable image, beautifully coloured, Cathy x
ReplyDeleteWhat cute cards...love the combo of the embossing paste thru a stencil and the doodling with a Sharpie pen to set off the image on card 2. I never seem to have kids cards (or masculine ones) when I need them so this is a good reminder to build up a stash by doing twofers and using fast and easy backgrounds. Thanks for sharing the specific Copics and Distress Markers you used.
ReplyDeleteYour giraffe is adorable, Bonnie...he has such a sweet expression! I love how you colored him on both cards and how you added texture with your paste on the get well card...so cute! I'm so happy you joined in the fun at CAS Stencil...we always enjoy seeing your creations in the gallery :) Barb xx
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful giraffe cards Bonnie. The baby one is so sweet with the softly sponged blue background and the blue card base. Your get well card is so awecome with the embossing paste background and your doodled border. Your copic colouring of the giraffe is AWESOME! Thanks for playing along with us at Twofer Card Challenge and CAS Stencil! xx
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh, that's the sweetest, coolest giraffe stamp! Very life like with your awesome coloring. Don't they make the cutest baby cards? This one certainly is adorable! Your get well card doesn't look crooked to me. Love the textured background. Both cards are just fabulous and I'm so glad to see them in our Twofer gallery!
ReplyDeleteThose are fabulous, Bonnie. Love the giraffe's sweet face! Great addition of the bow on the baby card, but my favourite is the get well one - he definitely looks unwell compared to the one on the baby card (great colouring to depict that!). And I love the embossing paste background.
ReplyDeleteThat's such an adorable giraffe, Bonnie ... love how you coloured him so softly for your new baby card ... and gave him that fun bright bow! The texture on your get well card is brilliant ... puts me in mind of the pattern of his skin ... who wouldn't feel better seeing this cutie arrive in the mail! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer ... and for your lovely visit and sweet words! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSuch an elegant giraffe :-) I love especially the second card, where he made a beautiful paste background. Your Copic coloring is stunning, Bonnie!
ReplyDeletehugs,

What a super cute and fun pair of giraffe cards! Your coloring is fabulous and that little bow around his neck is too much fun :) Great job on this twofer!
ReplyDeleteTwo fun giraffe designs Bonnie! and wonderful coloring on your long necked fella! The white paste embossing adds nice texture to your white framing! xx
ReplyDeleteYour little giraffe is adorable. Two great designs .... love the stenciling with the paste, makes the perfect frame xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun giraffe image. He has such a sweet smile I think. Great cards made with him too.
ReplyDeleteThat giraffe is adorable, Bonnie. Both twofers are beautiful. Wonderfully coloured and designed. xx
ReplyDeleteHow could you forget that sweet face, Bonnie. Beautiful coloring in both mediums.
