I decided to use "Big Comfy Cake" by Crissy Armstrong. This giraffe is so cute that I just couldn't resist. I added a sentiment from the "Party Mini Seals" set from Raindrop Echo Designs. I can see that this is going to be one of my "go to" stamp sets for birthday cards in the future. Both of these stamps will be available in the Whimsy store on April 13th.
Stop by the Whimsy Stamps Inspiration blog on April 13th to get all the details on the blog hop for the new release.
