After finishing yesterday's cute critter scene, I watched a Barbershop Harmony online contest - top 10 high achieving quartets over 6 decades who'd never won their International Championship. Very fun and they'll announce the winners on Monday. Check it out on YouTube here if you want to watch a bit. When it ended, I was sucked into making another cute critter card - couldn't resist a darling Hero Arts From the Vault set, appropriately named Cute Animals. I've had it about a year and am just now getting to use it!! I chose the hippo image and built my scene from there, paper-piecing with various dotted papers. The sun isn't paper pieced - I just stamped and cut it out. Parts of the monkey and palm tree, the hippo and the coconuts were all paper-pieced. Thought the monkey would be cute with googly eyes.
My card is going to the following challenges: Stay Crafty with Hero (#14 Critters), A Blog Named Hero (Cute), Sweet Stampin' (Paper-piecing), and NBUS Challenge since my Cute Animals set is getting its first use. Thanks to all challenge holders for the fun!! Thanks to you for stopping by and have a crafty day!!
