Hello, friends:}
HOOOORAY for Ippity challenges and H{ippity} Hops! Be sure to stop by the Ippity blog for a complete list of participants. There are some super amazing projects and cards shared today--WOWZA!
Today I am sharing a project that I made for the Ippity Hippity Hop Twist and All Things Unity [alter it] challenges. I knew as soon as I saw the inspiration photo (with that word wrapped heart)--I wanted to make something similar. I put some candies inside this egg and wrapped it with the stamped sentiment from Sweet Thoughts of Spring set. I used the chick as well from this Ippity set. I love that Martha Stewart ribbon--this really turned out super cute!
That's it for me today! Be sure to stop by the Ippity blog for all the blogs to hop--and don't forget to leave some love!
Thanks so much for stopping by! I'll be back soon with more creations. Be blessed!
ps...Don't forget to link up your creations to the following challenges {ending soon!}:::

EIC #128 {The Hidden Alphabet}
Hello, friends:}
Today is a VERY special day for me--and two other friends!! I am meeting them in Orlando!!! I will share pics soon!! So this will be a quick post!
So excited about this week's EtsyInspired featured shop:: The Hidden Alphabet. I love these photos. The owner takes photos of objects that look like letters and creates words and names. LOVE it! So fun. It makes you look at things in a different way! I loved this photo for the word EAT. I also love the color story--monochromatic [black/white/gray]. I made a card using my Unity Sit.Eat.Enjoy. Itty Bitty stamp. I love love love how this turned out. I went monochromatic with browns/creams/grays. LOOOOOVE it!
Our sponsor this week at EIC is Paper And Roses. So cute! You have got to check this shop out- HERE.

FWF {Feb. 25}
Hello, friends:}
HOOOORAY for Fridays! It's FWF over at the Unity blog! Be sure to stop HERE for the complete blog list--and be sure to leave some love! You could WIN some FREE Unity!
And be sure to check out the amazing deals over at the Unity website--the Itty Bittys are on SALE!! Buy 3 get one free; Buy 6 get 2 free!! LOVE it! Click HERE to see all the Itty Bitty stamps.
I wanted to share this card that was featured last week as the FWF feature. I made it for the Ippity Hop Twist Challenge (sketch). I did move the sketch pieces up and added a strip of paper and the sentiment at the bottom of the sketch, so I'm not sure if it still counts??? I just love these colors together--and get this! EVERYTHING on this card was stamped [except that lace frame by K & CO.]. I used these Ippity stamp sets:: Music of My Heart, Sing A New Song, Regal Greetings, Dots for Sure. LOVE it!
I also wanted to share this fun card using my favorite stamping technique--paper piecing. I created it for the Paper Piecing Challenge in the Moxie Fab World. I also stamped EVERYTHING on this card [minus the two DP panels at the top and bottom of the middle section]. SO FUN! I love this Suzi Blu stamp by Unity. I hate to admit it, but this card took the entire 2nd half of the Super Bowl to make! I used Unity's Queen of Glitter stamp, polka dot background stamp, and the ticket from Love Beyond Measure set for this card. SOOO cute! Love that glitter!
And if you haven't entered our All Things Unity challenge--please head over to the ATU site to check it out. We are ALTERING things this week! You have until March 5th at 11:59pm EST to enter! I made this super cute vday present as my project. You can read more about it HERE.
That's it for me today. Be sure to stop by the Unity website for great deals on more amazing stamps and the Unity blog for the complete list of FWF friends:} Thanks for stopping by and for leaving some love--you make me smile! Blessings:}
ps...be sure to stop by the PDCC and play along with our current challenge! LOVE these colors and I love love love my card! I am also entering this card into the Wee Memories challenge because I was inspired by Maren's sketch on page 43 of Paper Crafts Go-To-Sketches magazine. LOVE how this turned out--now if only I would have thought of this BEFORE the publication call ended:} Here's a peak...head over HERE for the details.

PDCC #70
Hello, friends:}
WOW! You all rocked the last PDCC combo challenge--The Combined Grind Challenge! LOVED looking at all your fabulous creations!
This week we have another fun color story--brought to you by Ruby 2 Shoes! This is her second color story--and wow! What a beautiful combo! I really enjoyed working with these colors. I love these papers from Gartner. They were a perfect match this week! I used my Unity notebook stamp for the top section--I stamped it with green dew drop ink on kraft paper. I wanted something soft but still fun. I also used my Unity Joy Ride set for the airplane, along with my Unity Road Trip stamp. LOVE it! My favorite part of this card--the license plate that says FLORIDA! FUN! And I love that twine--available at The Twinery. Super fun card--and it just matches perfectly!
That's it for me--but you will want to jump on over to all these other amazing PDCC DT members' blogs! We also have a special Guest Designer this week--Maria Gurnsey. She is our special guest because she is also offering up an amazing Ippity package for a prize this week! THANKS, Maria! Super sweet of you!
