Monday, Monday...

Hello everyone, time for another h{ippity} hop, so it must be Monday!  Without further ado, here are the cards I'm sharing with you:

First is a card based on the color challenge at The Play Date Cafe: A photo inspiration with shades of orange pink and yellow.  I used some old My Mind's Eye paper (possibly Wild Asparagus) I had in my stash, added images from You Deserve , Bitty Pixie Paisley and A Moment in Time.  A bit of ribbon, some dew drops and pink rhinestones finish it off. 

Next is a card based on sketch # 87 at Card Patterns.  Papers are from 7 Gypsies, images are from Fall For You , A Bit of Burlap (the texture on the pumpkin) and the House a Home set.  Lace, grosgrain ribbon, a vintage button and some twine finish it off.

All {ippity} stamp sets are available for purchase right Here!

Stamp {ippity}!

Hello everyone, here we are another Monday, another {ippity} hop!  Keeping it short this week, cause I'm running late!  I have a few layouts to share with you today that I created at Scrap Camp last week.  The first one has photos from a day trip to Central Park.  I used Echo Park Papers and ippity stamps from Quotes a'la Happy and Love in Return.

Next is a page with photos from hubby's and my vacation to my dream place in Ontario, Canada.  I used October Afternoon papers and a stamp from the ippity set  Delightful Little Things. I also used a Bit of Burlap on the letters to give them dimension.  

All {ippity} stamp sets are available for purchase right Here!

Another Monday Hop!

Gee, I've been away from my blog for a week and I missed last week's hop and I must say I'm glad to be back! I had a wonderful trip to Buffalo, but I still feel like I'm trying to catch up on all the sleep I lost! I have a couple cards to share this week - First is a CAS card based on this week's sketch at Unscripted Sketches. I just stumbled upon

this blog several week's ago and I have to admit, I just adore their sketches! Anyways, I moved the blocks of the sketch around a bit, but you get the general feel of the sketch. I used a sentiment from The Simple Things set. (That's a Bit of Burlap on the sentiment also!) and the background blocks from the Fall for You Kit. A bit of hand stitching with some twine frame this card.

Next is a card I made based on my weekly sketch for Buffalo Stamps and Stuff. Papers are by Graphic 45, the cherry was paper pieced using an electronic die cutter and the phrase is from the Simple Things set. The beautiful delicate lace was bought at Buffalo Stamps last weekend - I just love the ribbons and trims Sharon picks out!


Have a wonderful Monday and I hope your week is full of smiles! Remeber to check out the full list of hop participants on the {ippity} blog!

Hello, Hello!

...and a happy Monday to you! I woke up this morning determined to start off the week with a smile on my face and a jump in my step - I'm hoping it will carry over to the rest of the week :) Countdown to my daughter's wedding continues: T minus 13 days and counting. Still not sure what I'm wearing, but hoping it all gets ironed out this week! (or else I'm in trouble, LOL) Anyways, you're probably here for the h{ippity} hop, so let's get down to it. My first card showcases the Now and Always set, using the inside of one of the flowers with some paper piecing and the scroll stamp. The sentiment is from The Simple Things set. Paper is from My Mind's Eye and the card is finished off with a bit of glossy accents in the center of the flowers and a bit of silk ribbon.




The next card showcases the Season of Joy, A bit of Burlap and Regal Greetings sets. The paper is from the EverAfter line by Cosmo Cricket. I'm pretty sure the Bit of Burlap is going to become a staple on my craft table. I might as well just keep it mounted on it's own block and keep it out, considering how often i reach for it!

Thanks so much for stopping by, your visits go a long way in keeping my smile bright! Take a moment and stop by my Stamp{ippity} site and be sure to click on the sets to get a more detailed view of these fabulous stamps!
