Little Bundle of Joy

I have a friend that is wanting a baby shower card for next month. She bought gifts that are all matching in pink and brown. Well, I told her that she needed a pink and brown card to go along with the gifts. Where else but in crafting land can such a request be filled?
Inside----

Ok, so don't look tooo closely at the storks on the front. I did not realize that they were in flight straight up til I was all done with the card. So I had them 'wake up and fly right' on the inside. 
The giraffe is from Daisys Digi Doodles. It's called Giraffe...duh!!!! I would've given him a name like Stretch or Long Neck, or Chooey with that mouthful of acacia leaves. Did you know that giraffes' tongues can be as long as 21 inches? A giraffe is pregnant for 15 months, maybe that's why the calves are 6 ft tall when born. A giraffe's front legs are strong enough to kill a lion.
Now that you know so much more about giraffes go get one and start creating.

Where else can you find a pink giraffe, not anywhere that I know of. Never noticed the storks until you mentioned them. Great info on giraffes too, it's something that I didn't know, so now I know! You have a great sense of humor, your writing on your post made me chuckle. I know I have a couple of giraffes in my arsenal of digis. My project today is a wedding card for a friend of ours, they're finally getting married after living together for umpteen years. He's in his early 70's, and my friend Loretta is almost 60. I decided to go with a cutesy vibrant colored card, heck they don't need white, ivory, or lacey doo-dads. I'll post it when it's completed. :) Sandi
