I cut out and paper pieced this adorable little hippo from Snag'em stamps for a valentine. Penelope is the little girl that moved in next door last summer. I wanted to make something sweet, llike she is, and simple, because she is only a year and a half old. Simple ribbon and a RED bird, plus a punched out heart are the only additions.
Thanks for looking.

Oh, you are so kind! I love this done in pink with your little RED bird! I had a neighbor that always called me Penelope Pitstop.......I've never known anyone by that name with the exception of Ms. Cruz!!!
