Could it be fall?

Good morning everyone, welcome to the {ippity} hop!  We've had a rather abrupt change in the weather here in Jersey, cooler, rainy and when I went for a walk the other day I noticed leaves were starting to fall.Made me want to make this card:


It's based on this week's sketch from Unscripted Sketches, I used some October Afternoon and Cosmo Cricket patterned paper and the Lovely "Fall for You" {ippity} set.  

This next card is based on the challenge at Embellish Magazine, which called for a quirky, cutesy CAS card using the colors Sea Foam, craft, peach and cream.  I usually don't do CAS much, or quirky or cutesy for that matter - but I was happy with the way this came out.  I featured the awesome new set, "Quotes a'la Happy"






If your looking to get yourself some more {ippity} - and honestly who isn't?  Please stop by my {ippity } site to view all the available sets.  Next up on the hop is Carissa, and the full hop listing can be found on the {ippity} blog. 

Thanks for stopping by, till next time...
