H{ippity} Hop August 30

Hello, friends:}


Happy H{ippity} Hop day!! I am really bummed that I didn't get a chance to participate in the Ippity challenge this week [use paint]. I just couldn't think of anything original. I had an idea....but then ran out of time...and you know how it goes. Oh well. Next time:} I did finish one card for the hop today! I was inspired by Danielle Flanders' card--her colors...the hemp string...the star...just loved her card! **NOTE:: A couple of weeks ago, I said that I don't normally CASE cards....I think I might have to start trying this more. I really liked not having to think (much) and just creating! Thanks, Danielle for sharing such a fab card!

My card was created using Ippity's Book It! stamp, along with the star, car, and sentiment from Ippity's Authentic Man. I love my new Old Paper distress ink pad! I have never heard of this color until Julie Campbell shared this with me....or was it Lisa A....one of them! LOVE this color!

I also have a fun sneak peak for you....I made this card for the Paper Crafts sketch challenge. Trav helped me design this card! I LOVE these colors! I used Ippity's Fall For You bird for this card! Everything else I paper pieced or made from scratch-- LOVE LOVE LOVE it:}

And....I finally have two winners to share with you! Each winner will get a random Ippity stamp set! HOOORAY:} Congratulations to.....
