Joy Giraffe by Yana Smakula
Hi friends! Thanks for stopping by today! We are so pleased to welcome back the always creative and fantastic Yana Smakula who dug out some fun critters (Stacking Animals) we released earlier this year and dressed them up for Christmas! She used the scarf and antlers from the Christmas Cats set and topped it off with the Falling Snow background and Joy die for a sentiment. Be sure to watch the video and enjoy!

This card is adorable! I’m looking in my stash now for winter dress up items!

the giraffe is so cool. I do adapt my stamps to suit me ;-) turned the baby party animals into halloween monsters and I have this grumpy cat stamp that gets dressed up a lot ;-)
Absolutely adorable! You have such a creative mind, Yana! :)
What a great idea and so creative. I always forget to look at other stamps to put together. Thanks for sharing.
So cute! i especially love the upside down bird!
Yana–what a cute card! I especially like that you showed a way to mix stamp sets and get more use from both! The birds are so much fun and the giraffe looks like he is begging to be part of the Christmas celebrations with his new antlers! Thanks for sharing a great project!
I just love that adorable giraffe standing proud with joy! Such a great combination of pieces and the coloring is amazing! This is a really fun card, and I may just need to get myself that JOY die it so versatile!
Great idea Yana. Sometimes the simplest ideas are the last thing we think of. Thanks for sharing with us.
