 Hippest Hippo Bundle, Sending Smiles Bundle & Dot & Spots Die

Another fun card using the Hippo Stamp Set & Hippo dies, & Dots & Spots Dies, (all three of these are FREE during Sale-a-bration with qualifying orders, until August 31, 2022), and Sending Smiles.  I saw this card on Sharon Burkert's blog, As the Ink Dries, and you can see her card Here, post of July 1, 2022.  

 

Recipe:

• The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Melon Mambo, scored at 4 1/4.
• The next layer is a 5 1/4 x 4 piece of Basic Black.
• The 5 x 3 3/4 Basic White layer is cut out with the Dots & Spots die.  (This die is free with an order of $100.00 or more during Sale-a-bration, until August 31, 2022).
• The word "sending" is cut out with Basic Black & Basic White cardstock.  I used Foam Adhesive for the black shadow word and an Adhesive Sheet for the white word. 
• The hippo is stamped on Smoky Slate with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored with Smoky Slate Blends.  I then cut him out with a hippo die.
• The little Melon Mambo flowers are cut out with the Sending dies and added with Glue Dots.  I added some little Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the center of the flowers.
• The words are stamped on Basic Black with Versa Mark and White Embossing Powder and cut out with a Sending Die.  I popped this up Mini-Dimensionals.
• All done and remember to decorate your envelope.
