Let's Get This Party Poppin'! A Hippo-rific Birthday Card!

Get ready to smile, because today I'm sharing a handmade birthday card featuring the new and utterly adorable dancing Hippo Brads! This pair of whimsical hippos are guaranteed to bring a dose of joy to any celebration.

I decided to create a square fancy fold card for this special occasion. What makes this fold unique is a middle panel that holds the upper and lower folds neatly shut until opened. This simple design adds an extra layer of surprise when the card is opened!

The stars of this party are, of course, the dancing hippos! I positioned them on the center panel, ready to celebrate. And what's a party without balloons? These happy hippos are holding onto three cheerful Balloon Brads, adding to the festive atmosphere.

Just above the playful "Hippo-Party-Mus" sentiment, you'll spot two charming Gift Brads, perfect for setting the birthday mood. To really light up the scene, I created a fun string of "party lights" using 8mm Cut Jewels in three vibrant colors. They add just the right amount of sparkle!

This card was so much fun to put together, and I hope it sparks some creative joy for your next birthday project. The new Hippo Brads are truly a delight to work with!
