Two wee quickies

This card was inspired by this week's featured stamper over at Splitcoast - here's Pam's original.  I was inspired by her image of a watermelon and I knew I had this oldie from High Hopes in my stash ... somewhere!  Took a while to find it but I' glad I did as it's been such a loooooong time since she saw any ink.
Coloured with polychromos and popped up on foam pads.

This one looked better in my head!  Haha.  Though I'm not sure what I would do different.  I think I should have done something different with my sentiment and I would have moved him over to the left a smidgen. 

My little hippo is from Gerda Steiner - coloured with polychromos and a paper pieced shirt. I'd a little piece of grey card in my stash that was sort of the same shade as my hippo so cut a few butterflies from it.

  1. We had watermelon tonight after our dinner, and I like it so much that I look quite like the little girl on your card when I'm eating it! I love your hippo, too, with his crossed eyes. Do you think he can even see that butterfly sitting on his nose? Paper piecing is always fun, especially when it's for hippo clothes. he he Have a great week!
