This card is for the Clean and Simple Challenge #60, which is a sketch. It's also for the Curtain Call Color Challenge (kraft, white, black and Pretty in Pink) which you can find here: http://stampinwithstacey.blogspot.co...ge-act-23.html
I first stamped the pink squares with a stamp from Little Shapes - using my Stamp-a-ma-jig. Then I added the hippos from a clear set I got at Michael's last night. I colored the flowers, ears and teeth with gel pens. The bottom layer is PTI Kraft and is punched with an SU! border punch and scored with my Scor-Pal. The hippo layer is matted with Pretty in Pink. The tag sentiment is from the same clear set and is cut out with a tag die from Spellbinders. The ribbon is from PTI. I added a little darker pink flower with a black brad to match the flower on the hippo.
