Giraffe Mitten Card

Good Morning Scrappers! Today's Christmas Card was made for my sister Kathleen. She collects Giraffe's. My attempt was to make the mitten base look like green yarn with my coloring pencil. I am not sure I accomplished that look but in real person the card looks better and more like a yarn mitten. Thanks for dropping by today. Enjoy your week! Gail
