A Hipster-Potamus!!


Something a little different from me today!!
This is my make for today's DT post over at Make the Day Special... I wasn't sure about this little guy when he first came into the store but I decided to give him a home and this is his first time getting inked!!

I found a tub of painted balsa wood tags in my stash so I thought I'd have a play... he's stamped with Black Stazon and coloured with Prisma Pencils,  looks kinda cute how his face follows the shape of the tag!!

The back of the tag was left raw so I covered it with patterned paper and added a speech bubble for the Hip Hip Hip Hooray :0)


He's coated with clear matt varnish to protect him from knocks and scratches and he's just looking for a bunch of keys to call home now....at least the keys wont get lost, he's quite large :0)

Thanks for your visit today, hope you have a great weekend :0)
