My focal image is the giraffe from the Sweet Safari set. The tall, narrow image was perfect for the layout's long panel. I colored the image with Copic markers, then used my Scan 'n Cut machine to cut out the colored image. It was adhered to a light blue panel with foam tape for dimension. To ground the image, I tucked a strip of green cardstock cut with a grass border punch beneath the raised image. The "thanks for sticking your neck out for me" sentiment was stamped on the green piece in black ink. I matted the panel on kraft cardstock, then set it aside to build the rest of the cardfront. I cut two narrow plaid patterned paper strips and matted them with coordinating golden yellow cardstock. The strips were adhered to opposite edges of a green cardstock panel, then the matted image panel was placed on top. The finished panel was adhered to a golden yellow card base matching the mats beneath the patterned paper strips.
