    I love the hippo! It reminds me of this children's song my dad used to sing to us when he would goof around... "Hippopotamus, please don't sit on us." Her work is lovely!

    I heart the pink elephant with martini card and the flapper love birds card. Just by looking at the elephant and the cute bubbles, I feel like joining him for a drink too. Bring on the lycee martini :)
