This cute little card I am sharing today is created using  Stampin’ Up! Hippest Hippos stamp set.  It is a card I have made for my great-granddaughter who is ill will COVID.  I tried to dress the hippos the way a 6-year-old would like.  I also used the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.

My challenge for today is the As You See It Challenge — Three To Get Ready.

My card base is Coastal Cabana card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Painted Textured 3D Embossing Folder.  

I stamped the hippos in Smoky Slate ink on Basic White card stock, cropped with the Hippo Dies, and colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers in Crumb Cake, Real Red, and Shaded Spruce.  I cropped grass from Stampin’ Up! Horizon Dies (retired) from a scrap of a green DSP in my stash.  I cropped the flowers, hearts, and umbrella from a piece of 2022-2024 Brights DSP.  My boat and stage for the ballerina, the tub turned upside down are cropped from a piece of Early Espresso card stock.  The glasses and the mast for the boat are cropped from a scrap of Basic Black card stock.  All the elements are put together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Resin Hearts (retired) are popped around the embossed panel. 

A greeting is stamped in Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, one end is flagged and it is popped over the mast to make a sail for the boat.

 

Sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Thought it Together and Wildlife Wonder stamp sets are stamped in Memento Black ink on a Basic White card stock panel and adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A medium Basic White envelope gets DSP from 2022-2024 Bright DSP is applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
