Hippo Happiness Birthday Card For A Color Challenge Blog Hop

 

Hello and Welcome to my Blog

and our Crafty Challenge Blog Hop.

You may be joining me from a fellow hopper's blog 

or starting here with me.

Either way, I hope you enjoy my project today 

and will follow along to see all of the creative projects 

shared by the group as we play with today's Color Challenge. 

Our Colors for today's hop are... drumroll please...

When I sat down to create my card for this challenge,

I was going in a completely different direction than the one I ended up in.

I was planning on using die-cut flowers around a more classic 

Happy Birthday greeting.

Imagine my surprise when my finish project looked like this: 

Does that ever happen to you?

What do you think of my final card?

Isn't this Hippo the Cutest?

I think this card makes me happier than those flowers would have.
