Baby Shower Card...It's a Girl!

Yesterday I went to a baby shower for a long-time friend...I've actually known her for about 18 years.  She is pregnant with her first and I'm so excited for her and her hubby to welcome their little girl in January...maybe even on my birthday!!
 
Here is the card that I made for her...
 
I started this card with a Whisper White cardstock base.  There is just something about a white card base that I LOVE!  It's so clean and crisp!
 
The DSP that I add is old Stampin Up that I found in my scrap box!  The cute giraffe comes from the retired Wild About You stamp set.  I just can't get rid of this set.  Just look how stinkin cute he is with a googly eye!  And I also added on some rhinestone jewels to bling him out a bit!
 
The layer of Early Espresso Core'dinations Cardstock below the giraffe is my favorite!  I just lightly sanded it and got a cute distressed edge!  LOVE!
 
I am entering this card in a few challenges!  The first is Unscripted Sketches #183.
 
And the second is Less is More #92...Use the Color Pink!
 
Hope you enjoy!  :)

Love the colors! The bright & blingy giraffe is sooooo cute! That is one SU set that will live on forever because it is so versatile. Great idea to use a label die & bright button for the other elements of this week's Unscripted sketch. Thanks for choosing to join us :)
