Remember to check the photo or videos if needed.
* Fold your card base in half at 4.25". You will be making a horizontal card today.
* Stamp your hippo then color it in using the stampin' blends
* Die cut the hippo, flowers, plant base, and circles, then cut the shaded spruce circle so that it is much smaller and looks like a hill or grass
* When die cutting the black circles, you will want to use the largest 3 circles from the Stylish shapes and run them through all stacked inside each other neatly to get the rings that you see in the photo
* Flag the ends of the DSP pieces by cutting into the center slightly, the cut from the corner to the spot where you cut (do this on both sides to make a flagged end)
* Adhere your DSP to the card base. Place the bigger piece closer to the top half and the smaller piece over the bottom of the larger piece
* Adhere the Shaded Spruce piece that you cut to look like a hill onto the white circle
* Stamp in Memento Black the sentiment in the upper right of the circle
* Add Pearl Basic Jewels to the center of 2 flowers
* Add Wink of Stella to the black rings
* Add the black rings to the card, placing the largerst one twards the left top and the smaller overlapping towards the bottom right
* Add dimensionals to the back of the white circle that you have put the hippo on and then add to your card by overlapping it on the black rings
* Stamp the inside as you see fit
