New Stamp from Little Claire's.


I received this adorable stamp this week from Little Claire's and couldn't wait to sit down and play!

It's a sweet giraffe, and not just for xmas if you cut the tree and holly off....I made a couple of cards with him to show this...they'll be on their way to Gill at Little Claire's on Monday!

The first card was an Xmas one, I coloured him in with Promarkers and cut him out with my Nesties. I embossed some panels of card using a snowflake folder and mounted these onto red card. The sentiment is a Kanban one I think.....I like the way this card has turned out, it's quite simple but very festive!

The second card was to show another idea for the stamp, a get well card! Again he was coloured in with Promarkers and cut out with Nesties. The backing paper is a 12x12 sheet I bought at a craft stal, not sure who makes it though. I embossed a strip of lilac card, and added that across the middle of the card. I embellished it with a bow and Card Candy from my stash, and stamped a simple sentiment.

Thanks for looking

  1. Love them both!

    It's a really unusual stamp for Christmas (but definitely a cute one!) and it's good that it's adaptable for other times of the year too.
