For Barbara's joy fold ff challenge and this week's umbrella wtui challenge. I had another image picked out for this card, but swapped for the umbrella hippo when I read Sabrina's write-up!
I tweaked the traditional joy fold by using the curved edge die. Inside, it says "...begins with you," and (look closely, at the bottom) there's another curved piece that forms a pocket for a gift card. I'll attach a photo of the inside in the chatter thread.

Your card is adorable, Brenda. I love the hippo with her umbrella, and I really want that die. The curves absolutely make this card. Now I'm off to take a peek at the inside. Very clever adaptation of the Joy Fold card.

So many smiles for sure, Brenda! What a great twist on the Joy Fold using those edge dies, and what a darling image. It reminds me of the cover of our old, old childhood LP which had some of the music from Fantasia on it. There was a dancing hippo in a tutu.
