Hi. I have a fun card to share today – and not a Nuvo drop to be seen:
I used the Big Picture Book Hippo from Simon says Stamp – die cut out of white, and some grey added in places for some shading.
The leaves from the Altenew stamp set were stamped using all three layers, then I had a play with the layout.
I felt that the hippo could be peering through some leaves and greenery to wish someone a happy birthday – that was the way my mind was going, anyway…….
I added some green sequins – instead of Nuvo drops – for some added bling and dimension.
I shall be entering the following challenges:
Color Throwdown – multi tonal greens and black and white
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge – use some green
Seize The Birthday – Birthday with option of a touch of green
Time Out Challenges – Birthday with option of die cutting or fussy cutting

The hippo is super cute! The shading you added really makes him pop. Beautiful leaves too! Thank you so much for joining our 6th birthday at Time Out!
