Giraffe Punchie

Well, I am back!  I have been gone for a while, we went to Disneyland for 6 days and had such an awesome time.  I took two more things off my "bucket list".  First hubby and I tried a Funnel Cake.  Our first time, and oh man it was delicious!  The second thing was to ride "California Screamin'" in California Adventure Land.  Now that was totally AWESOME.  We went with my sister and her family who love that type of ride, after the frst time I was hooked and rode it 5 more times.  Thank goodness for "FastPass" tickets!
I thought I would share a picture with you before I get onto today's card .....

I am the one in the back row on the right hand side.  This was trip #2.  The rest are my sister, her daughter and her hubby.
Now onto today's card......

On Tuesday I am having my Monthly Punchie Class. This month we are doing this cute giraffe, and tomorrow I will share the second card with you.  This image is so tall I had to make a longer card to fit it on, so it fits into a #10 envelope (9" x 4" finished size).
Stamps:  Family Phrases
Ink:  Bashful Blue, Chocolate Chip
Cardstock:  Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery
Other:  Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder, Build A Cupcake XL punch, Tasteful Trim die, daubers
I used the cupcake top from the cupcake punch to make the clouds, and the Tasteful Trim die to make the grass.  A very quick and easy card to make once you have the punchie image completed.
Thanks for coming back for a visit today.

UPDATE: I heard from the originator of this awesome punchie.  Her name is Bonnie (she is very talented) and HERE is a link to her blog where you can purchase the tutorial on this Giraffe.  Thanks, Bonnie, for letting me know you are the creator.
Happy Stampin'    .................................
