FMS200, Hipster-potamus!

Hello, I made this for this weeks Freshly Made Sketch FMS200. I used the Hipster-Potamus set from Avery Elle...love this one!

I stamped the hippo twice onto textured grey cardstock. I shaded in some ares with copics, and cut the head out of one image and added it on top of the whole image which I also cut out. I stamped the glasses onto the hippo, and also onto a piece of acetate with stazon ink. Then I cut the glasses out and added them with a few dots of quickie glue pen around the edges. The hat was stamped onto a scrap piece of cardstock then added with glue dots.

The card base is black and the bottom is dp from Recollections. The top is white embossed with the cloudy day embossing folder.

Have a Great Day!
