I had an Ippity VSN weekend!!

Well at least part of the weekend - I got busy on Saturday and didn't get to do much but I did get several challenges done Friday night.  It was a lot of fun and really got me out of my normal comfort zone.
This first card had to be blue and white - I used my cuttlebug and sanded the blue paper and colored in some of the letters with a blue copic that matched the blue.  Not the best card ever but I thought it would be a nice guy card and I got it done in the allotted 45 minutes.  The second card here was a sketch and it was my first challenge.  It was very challenging LOL!!  The 3rd card turned out better than I thought it would.  I colored over some whitewash core'dinations cardstock with my copics then embossed it with my cuttlebug.  I then sanded the cardstock and colored my fishy with the same copics.  It turned out better than I expected. The fourth card was a music challenge and I used my new PTI cardstock and some of the background paper from My Minds Eye that you can buy from Ippity.  Love the distressed look.  THE LAST card is my favorite!! The challenge was to use white on white and I love how this one turned out!! In person you can see the snowy shimmerz vibez I used on the embossed paper, ribbon and flower.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!  Have a great Ippity Monday!! If you would like to see more inspiration go to the Ippity blog for the h{ippity} list.
