Pink Hippo (Not a Pig!)



I've shown this card to a few people and the first thing they've ALL said is "Oh that's a cute pig." Just because it's pink doesn't mean it's a pig! Can't a hippo be pink? And doesn't its sign give it away!? Truth be told I don't own any grey cardstock... at least that I can find off hand anyway! It is possible I don't own any, I can't think of a single card I've made using grey paper. Anyway, this is a card I made from punches, partly from ideas I got from Heather's class and partly from ideas I got online. I can't remember all the sites I've been to looking for punch art now. This is my last punch art card for awhile. I have some others I'm working on but I'm going to get back to showing some embossed cards later this week!!

I didn't think it was a pig - even before I read your post :). Cute card! I'm loving your punch art cards, but looking forward to seeing some of your embossing again too!

I will admit on first glance I thought "pig"....then I looked at the face and knew it wasn't a pig.....and then of course your description confirmed it wasn't a pig.....LOL! Really cute card Heidi!

Funny pig card! .... just kidding : ) Heidi! Thank you for the beautiful card you sent to me!!! I was very touched. I hope to "be back" now I have missed all my on-line friends terribly!!

I have been really enjoying all your cards!! I can't comment on each one but I love them especially the panda and the lollypop!! What a talented papercrafter you are : )

Heheh he *does* look a little piggish. I think it's the color. But HELLO! If he were a pig, his snout would be round! (Now, I fully expect you to make a round-snouted pig card, you know) :)

Adorable!

I knew it was a hippo right off- the tusks were the clincher.
