I hope you all join us this week for the color challenge! I wanted to see a few more summer cards with bright colors before we head into fall and the holidays.
I just got these adorable hippos a few weeks ago and couldn't resist using them. I actually started with a floral card but I just wasn't feeling it so that idea got ditched soon after starting.
These guys are so much fun to color. After I was "finished", I thought the ice cream needed some Wink of Stella sparkle, which meant the popsicle needed some Glossy Accents and of course the drink needed a sugar rim of Stickles!
TFL!!

This card is so darned cute! I just love these wonderful hippos and how you have showcased each one on their own colored square. I love all the sparkle and shine you have added to their refreshments- how fun! You have made a wonderful card for this week's color challenge! ~Karen.

Oh, Jeanne, your hippos are adorable! I love the special touches you created for each of your yummy treats! I also love the stitched squares you created for the background of each hippo. Very artistic and adorable! Into my faves!

What a wonderful design with these darling hippos and their favorite summertime treats in the heat! The edge of dsp on the side of the card really finishes this off nicely!

Oh my word! I would have never thought I'd be saying this, but these hippos are some of the sweetest baby animals I've ever seen, Jeanne! Colored to Perfection and your design makes this card so Fun~
