This is an altered card board coaster from a restaurant that I turned into a refrigerator magnet. I used the hippo stamp from Just so Hippy (GKD). For the background, I drew in a tree and some grasses, then colored it with water color pencils, markers and sponging. The saying is computer generated.

I absolutely love your refrigerator magnet. What a great saying. I am definitely going to have to try this. You did a beautiful job drawing your trees and leaves and grass. I am not that talented, but I am willing to give it a shot.
