Jo's Stamping Spot - Just Add Ink Challenge #618


I had real visions of making a male card with this combo so nothing actually prepared me for the cuteness that ended up coming out!

I had been playing a bit with the Hippest Hippo set, the recent Sale-A-Bration stamps, and I had this one left over on my desk. I used Crumb Cake Blends to colour her in and then using a Blender Pen and Pacific Point ink I coloured the skirt and shoes. Liking the way she was looking I played around with different backing layers until I finally settled on the two Pacific Point layers on a Thick Basic White base and Basic White embossed layer. To add my Old Olive into the mix I used Old Olive Blends markers on some Basic White cardstock to just draw single-colour blobs and cut the flowers out of that. This gave me the different depths of colour in the flowers.

I used Dimensionals to pop my Hippo off the embossed circle (same embosing folder but made it run a different direction) and added my Old Olive flowers, a simple birthday sentiment, some Crumb Cake twine and some Pacific Point rhinestones to finish my card. I think this card would also look adorable in pinks or purples!

I do hope you find this inspiring and enough to have a crack at our challenge this week! I'm really hoping to see some masculine cards in the gallery because I'm always short of ideas! Visit the Just Add Ink blog to check out the challenge!
