Animal Kingdom

I have a couple of Hunkydory cards to share today, I decided to use some more of the Animal Kingdom collection.

For this first card I used an image from The Little Book of Animal Kingdom, I also used one of the printed cardstock sheets from the Ultimate Collection and a sheet of patterned paper from an old Pollyanna Pickering collection.  The sentiment is also from the Ultimate Collection and I added some buttons and raffia from my stash.


For my second card I used a fabulous Giraffe topper and printed cardstock from the Ultimate collection,  The sentiment is from the Ultimate Collection, I also added some twine and small gems from my stash.


I decorated the inside of the card with some of the leftover printed cardstock.


Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

Tremendously beautiful cards, Pauline. They have a gentle, deeply peaceful quality that is hugely welcome in the midst of the extra stressful time we're living in.

Hi Pauline

Your cards are always so beautiful .. .. .. inside and out!

Loving the panda card very much.

Hope all is well with you and you have a good day. We are starting off with clear skies and sunshine so fingers crossed for a day with no rain (for a change).

Love Jules xx

Two fantastic card designs! The panda card looks great decorated with the black buttons with the raffia kind of string. And the giraffe image is so lovely, also loving the layout and the string detail for texture.

Beautiful cards Pauline. Reminds me of my recent safari trip - no pandas, but some galloping giraffes! ( don't know how they do it on those long legs).
