Hip...hip....hippo!

Kaz did a fabulous job on the hippo back HERE on this post and Caroline has just another fantastic card using this little fella.

Caroline painted the hippo in metallic silver acrylic paint and stamped a swirl onto the body, using a grey pigment ink and then dusted pearl pigment powder onto the swirls.  This is the same for the swirl in the corner.






















His head has been mounted on a spring so it wobbles.

    What a clever idea. I love the soft, subtle colour too.

    He looks lovely and friendly. Love the addition of the googly eyes.
