Giraffe.
My 8 month old daughter seems to be very taken with giraffes, and really, why not. As I was brainstorming for my theme for the week (correspondence), I stumbled upon some Tanzanian postage I had in my box marked “decoupage/objects.” The stamp depicts Tanzanian giraffes. So I used it to make my daughter a little collage for her nursery. I used paper I had and free handed cutting out the letters. I think it is quite cute. I will frame it in a simple frame and hang it in her room. The picture below is a bit dark - the colors are more vibrant and the border is a deep navy.
I have to say that this time I only spent about 45 minutes (including making the accompanying mess and cleaning it up). I am a lot less frazzled than last night. I must remember to “Keep It Simple, Stupid.”
I also made my voice heard - I voted! Supah-Dupah Tuesday!
