Morning readers,
I've a make to share with you today ....... At the end of June I got the stamp set used below, as new stash, but ....... here's the thing ... this week was the first chance I really got to share my make, now that I know it has arrived at its destination! DUH! Such a cute set too ... we've all been using video chats more during the pandemic and I'm sure some of them have involved a beverage (or two) too!!!

Adorable hippo ATC. Love it.
I like the look of your leafy, if slightly soggy, walk.
Happy Friday xxx
Great ATC and card, Kathy. I’ve never heard of gamsol….. off to Google it to see if it’s something I need! Lol xx
I love your fun Hippo Happy Hour stamp Kathy, and a super sentiment too, and then another drinks related look for the beautifully framed second image, and lots of great colouring using Polychromos Pencils. x
Love your hippo happy hour Kathy, I think we need that happy hour in our lives, cheers! Xxx

I love both cards Kathy - the snippets one did make me chuckle! Super colouring and I had another smile at Liz commenting she was off to check out if she needed Gamsol. I use Sansodor - same but different brand, it certainly is good for when large areas are coloured with Polychromos pencils.
Hugs

Great cards. I really need those hippo zoom/wine stamps! That is a great card. It made me smile. Thanks for joining us in our ATG challenge at Krafty Chicks!
Both great cards. Love the design - so beautifully clean and simple!
