I wanted to combine this hop post with a challenge card for Hope You Can Cling To, so I pulled out So Sweet Cocoa... he is colored with Touch Twin Markers (the colors are listed below), and layered for dimension. I always keep the packaging insert from my SNSS stamps for layering on cards - I love those polka dots!!
Here's also a peek at some dies releasing soon from SNSS - the one shown below has spaces in it for lacing a strip of paper, ribbon... or twine! I like this look with the Pink Sorbet twine laced and tied through the openings. Fun, huh? The actual die is 6" long, but I cut it to 4" for my card. The bottom edge of the polka dot layer is cut by the outside edge of a second die in that border set.
Here's a close-up on Cocoa and the layering there, and also the markers I used to color him in:
