Baby

Giraffe ... Born in Greenville, SC on October 22, 2012 at 11:49PM
It's a baby BOY! His name is Kiko, which means "autumn's child."

I watched LIVE the birth (what a landing) and the first steps (up and walking around within hours.) on Earth Cam http://www.earthcam.com/usa/southcarolina/greenville/  It's so cool!

Masai giraffes can reach 16' to 20' tall.
  • Dad's name: Walter, 7 yrs old,
  • Mom's name: Autumn, 6yrs old
Babies at birth can be 6' tall.

I made a card using Create a Critter. The giraffes are to "scale" (well as close as I could using 1/4" increments for a foot.)   Punches used Fiskars Leaves, EK circle scallop 2" and  Recollections 1 7/16" circle.



Thanks for looking.

Birthday card

Hi,

My sister's birthday is in October. This card is a "lift". I saw Happy Birthday CFC69 by Waterdots in the gallery at Two Peas. I really liked the cleanness of the card.

In making the A2 card, I used white card stock, Cuttlebug folder Spots & Dots 37-1145, pink and black Pastel floss by Prism (twisted together), Pink rhinestones by Shabby Chic, Happy Birthday stamp by TPC Studio Whimsy Greetings, Glitter pen, 1/2" Crop-A-Dile Corner Chomper, and Recollections foam Adhesive circles "Pop dots".


Thanks for looking.
