Dressed up Giraffe

I have absolutely no male any occasion cards so I thought I would add one to my collection today.  I found this Meljen image and when searching for "dressed up giraffe sentiment", I guess I really thought I'd get something (uh yeah) so I just went with "All Dressed Up" and think this would be a really cute card for a man/teen who is about to go on a job interview.



Quite honestly, I was a bit intimidated at first by Come and Get It Challenges color selection, but I really like how they worked together so I'm glad I was inspired to do something different.

 What I used on this card:

 Digi: Meljen's Designs - Giraffe's Necktie
Paper: (for my sentiment) DigitalPaperCrafts "Little Helper" pattern; MME Jack & Jill; Hammermill
EK Success border punch
Studio G Glitter Glue
Image colored with Spectrum Noir and Prismacolor Markers
Sketch: 4 Crafty Chicks

    I'm glad we inspired you to try something different Leann, I know what you mean about colour challenges being a bit tricky, but once you get started they are a lot of fun. I love your fab image and colouring, a great male card. Thanks for joining us at Come & Get It this week.
