The Outlawz Paper a la mode Challenge

Our challenge this week is to alter a home decor item! I started with this plain white frame.  First I inked up the frame with creamy brown fluid chalk ink (it takes a bit for it to dry) then I jazzed it up with some BoBunny Paper - a little distressing and these fabulous stamps from the Ippity My True Joy set.  It looks great on my sofa table! Have a great Monday!

Ippity Challenge

The Ippity Challenge is Bling!! and I do LOVE bling!  On this card I used Ippity set My True Joy and added glitter to the flower.  I also used some bling to really add a little extra pizzaz to this card!  Want to enter the Ippity challenge and win some fabulous prizes? Order some Ippity stamps by clicking the link above.  Lots of great sets to choose from, a 10% off sale and always fun freebies (even free shipping on orders over $40.00) What are you waiting for?!!

I am also entering the CAS-ual Friday challenge to use a border punch on your CAS card.  I used Ippity set The Best on this card. Paper is Basic Grey. Twine from the Twinery.

Friends with Flair

I decided I really needed to add to my basket of cards - they have been going faster than I can make them!  Super simple designs - but fun and happy!!  All stamps are from Unity Kits of the Month.

Monday Linky a little late

sorry :(  I do have a fun card though!! I have been wanting to make one of these for a while and I was inspired again by seeing several made lately.  I thought this would be a very cheerful card for Kim to send her aunt.  Anyway - I used the flowers + friends = priceless ippity set that I just love!!  I have a view of the front and the back - the flowers pull out and the sentiment is on the pull-out.  I still have several of these stamp sets in stock and would love to send one your way!  Have a great week!

Cards for Hope

My friend and co-worker asked me to make cards for her aunt who just found out she has stage 3 breast cancer.  I have been neglecting my Unity Kits of the Month 'cause I've been loving my Ippity stamps so much.  So I pulled out some old faves and some that I hadn't inked up yet!


This first card was inspired by the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge to stamp and show torn/distressed edges!

For my next two cards I went with bright and cheerful and of course PINK!

Ippity Linky Party

Monday is linky party day again on the Ippity Blog!! I have a card on the Ippity blog and a layout that was for the Outlawz Party Scrapbook challenge.  There is still plenty of time to enter and lots of GREAT prizes up for grabs!!  I know I keep saying this but I am really loving this new Ippity release.  On this layout I used The Best and from a previous release, Fishy Philosophy.  Have a great Monday!

More New Ippity Fun!!

I am really loving these new stamps!! I just can't put them down!! Today we are featuring The Best and My True Joy.  I made two cards with My True Joy (I have a layout with The Best to share on Saturday!!)  I love the sentiment Happy yesterdays Happy tomorrows!!  I think that is just the best Anniversary sentiment.  My hubby and I have been married 25 years next month and I think that really says it best! Now I am going to have to figure out how to use it on a less girly card for him LOL!!

For this first card I used more of the fun paper from LilyBee> the second card is My Minds Eye paper and  I used SWAK and Sunflower glimmer mist along with some copics to color the flowers.  I then added baby's breath shimmerz spray over the printed paper for a nice shimmer!      

I would love to be your IPPITY chick.  Click here to see my sales and all the stamps - which are in stock and ready to ship :)

It's IPPITY Release Day!!

and I am so excited to be helping out on the Ippity Blog - we have a brand new challenge where you can win a $20.00 Gift Certificate to the Ippity Chick of your choice!!  This first challenge is to make Anything but a Card.  Here is my layout for the challenge.

I only used three sheets of paper (Echo Park), a piece of cardstock, a little ribbon, twine, two pins and of course my fabulous Flowers + Friends = Priceless stamps.  I stamped the flowers several times on two sheets of printed paper and cut out.  These stamps will be a new favorite because I LOVE using flowers as embellishments on my cards and layouts!!  The journaling box stamp is from Life's Little Moments set and I printed the quote from my computer after I stamped the box.  The I added the little heart from House a Home.  Stamps are perfect for scrapbooking as well as card-making!!
