You Are Awesome Hippo

Hi there,

it's Tanja here for you and I would like to show you the creation of this fun masculine card step by step:

• stamp the adorable hippo from the Gerda Steiner Designs Hippo in Disguise stamp set with Memento (Tuxedo Black) and color the image with Delta and Touch Twin Brush Markers
• add Wink of Stella Silver Glitter to his belt buckle 
• I stamped a little "F" into the buckle as well because I created the card for my son Finn
• create a background on white cardstock using the same purple markers and the Distress Marker Spritzer
• stamp the first part of the sentiment from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Hoppy stamp set with Memento (Tuxedo Black) onto a little strip of cardstock colored with a purple marker
• add a dark purple strip underneath and to the left side of the card
• continue the stitching on the left side of the sentiment strips
• stamp the second part of the sentiment from the same stamp set with the same black ink for the hippo to stand on
• add some 4mm and 6mm purple sequins as final embellishments

I hope you got inspired.

Yours,
