Something a little different from me today. I finally broke down and bought several Blue Knight stamps the other day. Love them!!! I kept seeing so many pretty cards with them so just had to jump in and get my feet wet too. I love this one with the tree and giraffe. It also comes with a pretty sentiment but since I was going to use it for a guys birthday card, I added a very old one from Simon Says Stamp instead. I blended several of the oxide inks for the background and then stamped over that with a stencil with a walnut brown oxide . I thought it gave the background sort of a giraffe-y look.
That's it folks.......a quick card.
Thanks for stopping by........

That is just fantastic! The background is perfection with those images and I love the simple birthday sentiment too. Great idea stenciling over the colored sky - it's really a unique and fabulous look!
A gorgeous card, Lynn... it reminds me of my trip to South Africa a number of years ago!
Fabulous background on this gorgeous card. I do love silhouettes on cards they always look amazing!

Wow! What a cool scene you've made on this Lynn!! I love that crackle effect and the colors are stunning! Never heard of the Blue Knight stamps....but they look awesome on your card! :)
This is simply stunning, Lynn! I don't know which I love more- the background or the silhouette! I had never heard of Blue Knight so of course I had to run over and spend the last hour oohing and aahing over their images 😊 I love the richness of this card so much! I will have to find time to play with some of the silhouette images in my stash!
I love this bold silhouette design, Lynn!! Beautiful work!
Wonderful colors, image and stenciling, Lynn. Super pretty card. I want that stencil! Hugz
