Hey There

Evening all, after a 6 month hiatus we are back with a brand new challenge over at HLS CAS, YAY!

Here is my card, can you guess the theme?


This month our theme is -


We you right?
I went with TALL!
This cute Paper Smooches giraffe was made taller by stamping the neck and head and then the neck and body, joining them under the green disk sentiment. 
After colouring him with Copics, he was fussy cut and attached to a panel of white card to which I had stamped a few leaves coloured again with Copics. I grounded him by adding some scribbled green Copic marker around his legs.
My circular sentiment panel was first coloured with one of the greens I used for the leaves and the Paper Smooches sentiment stamped and embossed with white EP. The finished panel was then added to a slimline card base, A5 folded in half. Slimline cards seem to be all the rage at the moment, good job I've got plenty of matching envelopes from donkeys years ago! There is nothing new, everything eventually comes back into fashion.
For more Short and/or Tall inspiration check out the rest of the DT, then why not join in? We'd love to see your interpretation in the gallery.
