Vicki and I are still having so much fun picking out the same cut and seeing what each of us come up with... they are always so different.... so this has been amazing fun... Kat on the Cricut Message Boards ask us to do a baby card.... we said ok lets do that!!!....lets do a baby card... Vicki picked out the giraffe or the elephant... I looked at both and an idea popped into my Alabama head as soon as I saw the elephant...so we went with him... hope that you like my take!... I cherish your comments!!..thanks for looking!

Hugs,
Jeannie
