h{Ippity} hop and BoBunny

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas - enjoyed family, friends and food - and made some time to reflect on the ultimate gift JESUS!! 

Well, with all those Christmas cards sent what is a girl to do?  Dive right in to some Valentine paper I say!!  I love printed paper!  (almost as much as Unity and Ippity stamps!!)  This is a fun patterned paper from BoBunny.  I usually layer lots of printed paper on my cardstock card base but on this one I just made the card from the printed paper and stamped right on top of it!!  Guess what the kraft paper is... repurposed gift wrap roll!!  I had never seen gift wrap rolled onto rolled up paper but this was and I just couldn't throw it away!!  but instead of cluttering my room with rolls I cut out several shapes with my spellbiders dies and then put the shapes under some heavy books to flatten out. 

This Ippity Love background stamp has quickly become one of my favorite stamps ever!!  The fun birds are adorable too!!  The printed paper is double sided so it had a fun pattern inside too.  I don't know what I will stamp inside yet.  The sentiment on the front is from this month's Unity store kit.  Which is also super adorable.  Michaella used it to make some fun tags for Derek for her 12 days of Christmas gifts.  I didn't get pictures but they were all super cute.

Hop on to Jess for more inspiration! and don't forget to check out the Ippity challenge for a chance to win PRIZES!! Have a great week.

Rona, your card is amazing! what a great idea to repurpose the kraft paper roll from your wrapping paper. And to think I threw mine away! I love how your bird cage looks like it is curved... is it or is it an illusion? It's all awesome!
