gazelle

here's what he looks like after I used several different Copic markers to put in details and shading

I'm rather pleased with him!

I still have another piece with 2 gazelles facing each other to do -- and the lion

I was a little worried how this would work since much of the black on this is done right over the brown paint that I stamped and I wasn't sure how well that would work, but it was not problem

the quilting on the leaves piece is in the home stretch -- just a little bit more in the third block then finish up the "viney" parts in the borders --- looking great!!



I've been fiddling with ideas for a Christmas card this year

this was one of the attempts -- I kind of liked the humor of having the giraffe put the star on the tree because he's so tall


today's idea has to do with penquins

I think I see more rubber stamp cutting in the near future!

I like the giraffe; good to know he's helping put the star on the tree, and not eating it off of the top!

yes, I think eating the glass star would be bad for his tummy!
