 We have a fun theme this week in the shape of animals & I couldn't resist this "more mature" wooden mounted stamp from Francoise Read. These cute patchwork giraffes go very well with one of the  more recent "Singles" clear stamps by Francoise, the Patchwork Background. I've stamped the background first with just a Versamark pad onto a piece of orange card & then onto the card blank with black ink. Then stamp the giraffes over the top of the orange piece. I've then stamped them twice more onto a piece of ivory card with the black inkpad before giving them some colour with the Sakura pencils. Cut out both the giraffes & then just the smaller of the 2 & then decoupage them onto the main image. Layer this onto black card & attach to the card blank. Highlight the Patchwork behind the giraffes with the orange gel pen & add the black Stickles to the markings, tails & horns of the giraffes. To finish add the spotty ribbon, the peel off greeting & some hearts. Pity we're too late for Valentine's Day!
