Are Giraffes and Frogs Pink?

Well -  they are around Valentine's Day!  I've got two more sweet digital  images to share today from A Day for Daisies.   First this sweet Hello Baby Giraffe.  I die cut the printed image with a Stitched Mat Circles Die layering it onto a white panel.  Sentiment stamps are from Sweethearts by Waltzingmouse.  I added three punched hearts and enamel dots. This Valentine will be going to my sweetie-pie little grandniece, Mila, who is 17 months old.
 Here's a 'not very good phone photo' my sister had on Facebook of Mila in pig tails -  she looks a little like Baby Giraffe!?!
 And then this cute little Love You Frog that I cut out with a Stitched Mat Rectangle die.  The washi tape has little hearts in the center of the knots - see them there?  The sentiment (you make me hoppy) is from Tiny Treats: Valentine by PTI.  I made two of these frog Valentines to send to my grandnephews Landon who is 3 1/2 and James who is 2 3/4 - I think they'll get a kick out of a pink/red frog!
They are pink (and red) for the A Day for Daisies Blog challenge to use pink and red (see yesterdays' post as well!)
and look -  there really ARE pink frogs!
My cards were also inspired by the JUGS challenge -  the third photo down on the left has little pink animals in it and red hearts are all over the photos!
 I hope you can stop by tomorrow when I'll be posting my Design Team sample for the new Fusion Card Challenge!
