Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
I have a PILE of things I've been gathering to take to Goodwill. I have cleaned out closets, drawers and under beds. Markie put several games into the pile along with some, once loved stuffed animals. Well....Speedy the Cat keeps grabbing a little hippo from the pile and he HIDES it under my bed! I have gone under there 3 times to get it, and I'm sure you can imagine, it becomes a HUGE joke...I swear, I can hear him laughing at me as I wiggle under the bed and use TONGS to reach the hippo, as Speedy the Cat takes it to the FAR reaches! LOL!
So, in honor of Speedy the Cat's antics this morning, I decided to make this card!
The image was stamped twice and colored with woodless color pencils and odorless mineral spirits. Then, both images were cut out and layered.
The primas were layered and centers are SU!'s new designer brads.

Faith, I think you have a fabulous eye for collecting beautiful elements and putting them all together. Love the shade your hippo came out and all the fabulous designer brads, both on the gorgeous prima pile and under your hippo. At least you didn't have to fetch him from under the bed!!

Faith, you mix so many different things and it turns so beautiful! I will never put those black and white buttons and they give such a beautiful look at the card! Magnifique!
