More dancing hippos - for Alex's 9th birthday

Just a quickie post tonight.  It's movie night and Jack Ryan is on the menu.  I've read a few of the books and enjoyed them, so hope the movie lives up to them.  Mind you, it will be easy to watch with Chris Pine and I love Kevin Kostner and Kenneth Brannagh anyway, so I think we're on a winner here ;)

When I saw the sketch over at Less Is More I immediately saw the 2 triangles as a spotlight, though I'm hoping all those splatters don't take my card out of CAS!  I've used my new hippos from Clearly Besotted again - coloured with polychromos, clear gloss/glitter added to their tutus and popped up on foam pads.  Gummiapan sentiment die.  This card is for my niece whose favourite animal is a hippo!!!

This one uses an oldie from Lili of the Valley, a freebie embossing folder and a snip of DP found at the bottom of a pile on my desk!  I've popped the image panel up and added some spearkle to the butterfly and flower.  My DP is brighter and matches my little girl better in real life!
MFT wonky circles die.

    Those dancing hippos are so cute. Love your little flower girl, too. These cards will be fun to give and receive. Have a good time at the movies.
