Thanks for visiting my blog today. If you’ve ever wondered what a Flirty Flamingo colored, Bokeh Dot printed, rhino looks like, you’ve come to the right place. Here he is:
Animal Friends
Let’s call this rhino, “Pinky,” and his giraffe friend, “Daffy,” for her Daffodil Delight color. Would you like to know how I came up with these colors? Look at this week’s Global Design Project challenge:
I colored my Animal Friends with the Bokeh Dots background stamp, because it’s a quick and easy way to get shading. The outline of the animals is Soft Suede ink.
The Animal Friends die set has dies for cutting, making it super easy.
Did you notice the three sections of embossed Layered Leaves? The idea came from this week’s Paper Players challenge.
Pinky and Daffy are happy in their sections of Whisper White, Layered Leaves. Plus, it gives Daffy a place to rest her long neck.
I’ve made a number of cards featuring these adorable animals from the Animal Outing stamp set, but this is the first time I’ve used the sentiment, “together we make a great pair.” I used a Stitched Shapes square die for cutting around the sentiment, and added some sprigs from Soft Suede cardstock.
The envelope is decorated with a piece of Frosted Floral Designer Series Paper.
For the final detail, I added the two hearts, because Pinky and Daffy thought this was a good card for people in love.
I hope you enjoyed seeing more of my Animal Friends. I know they like showing off for you!

Love the way you used this week’s sketch to create a ‘landscape’ for your colourful animals Su – very clever! Great use of tone-on-tone texture with the embossed leaves too. Thanks for playing along with us over at The Paper Players this week!
Super cute project.
Su, this is just adorable! I love the embossed panels and the giraffe peeking out! Love the pink on the rhino and heart, too! Such a fun pop of color! So happy you joined us at The Paper Players this week! XX
Great interpretation of both challenges. Love this card. Believe it or not, I have had this stamp set since we got it at On Stage and haven’t yet inked it up, but I think I may just have to CASE your design and put it in play! Thanks for the inspiration!
*So* cute with an artistic flair! Love your design elements. The Layered Leaves embossed panels provide a great background for your pair of adorable pals. The pop of color against the white makes a striking statement. The Soft Suede leaf spray ties together so well with both the Layered Leaves and the outlines of the pair of pals. Really striking, Su!
