One of my friends is very fond of ethnic art so I made this card for her birthday. This African Queen is a coloring page straight from the internet and is coloured with Derwent Coloursoft. I wanted to make some sort of shield but a necklace piece at the same time; I made the rim with raffia and the embellishments are all part of an old belt (oh well, if you don't trash it, you stash it, and I've got loads of stuff lying around!). The elefant silhouette is cut out of cardstock and I distressed the edges with Tim Holtz Walnut Stain; the stamp "Party" is of an unknown brand. There's no party without a party animal! Backgroundpaper is from Pipoos (a Dutch craft store). The Classic Safari Campus logo belongs to a travel agency; I found it in black and white and also coloured it with Derwent. 'n Hartlike Gelukwensing! (I really love this language, Afrikaans!)
