For a swap on Swap-Bot, I'm supposed to send a decorated envelope. I looked at what my partner likes to get some ideas of how to decorate it, and see that her favorite animal is ... the giraffe.
Did I have more giraffes in me? I figured I'd at least give it a shot. So here is the envelope I'm sending out to her today.
Baby giraffes! I took the photo at the Denver Zoo on our last trip there, in December. I like giraffes okay, but the baby ones are just beyond adorable. It will be interesting to see how much bigger they are when we go back next time.
I think I'm done with giraffes for a while!
Oh, I'm sure she'll love it. It's really remarkable, and who can resist a baby giraffe? nancy

Adorable doesn't even do this sketch justice! She'll love it!

Yes, more giraffes, because you draw them so well. How pleased the recipient of the envelope must be. Elza

Thank you!
Maybe I have a future in giraffe portraiture. ;)

I really appreciate the kind comments. I have a soft spot for giraffes as well - I was excited that the zoo had babies.
