Another Core'dinations Crop Challenge

I just love a good challenge to get my juices flowing!!!  These cards are also for Michaella's collection to use at school. (I mean if you have to send a note home with a kid because of discipline issues wouldn't it be easier to take with a super cute card?!) Well at least I think so! LOL  Debbie's All Cardstock challenge inspired me.

I used all Core'dinations Kraft cardstock for this challenge.  Love the kraft and the way it looks sanded!!! It is also perfect for the inside of a card because it is not too dark to write a  note!  I love it for fall cards! So I stamped up these adorable pumpkins from Ippity set Fall for You. I cut out the large pumpkin layers 3 times and sanded the edges to give it a great shaded look. Then used pop up foam to give it a nice look.  For the short pumpkin I cut out the center oval 4 times, sanded, folded in half and glued together to make this a 3-D pumpkin!!  I added a little American Crafts ribbon (a little twine) and a few Prima Flowers to embellish.  I sanded the orange top layer of cardstock then stitched it to my yellow and layered on top of the brown.  The sentiment stamp is from Ippity set Just Wanted to Say.

Choosing me does not obligate you to make a purchase but allows you to see all the stamps.  If you decide to buy that's great and I truly appreciate your business!! You can also order your Unity stamps on the same order.  Ippity is just a co-brand of Unity sold by Ippity chicks like me!!!  Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!!

It's Monday time for some Ippity!!

I have a couple of cards today that I made to ACTUALLY send out!! So often I make cards for DT or challenges, etc. and never make a card just 'cause I need to send one out!  I used Ippity stamp set Just Wanted to Say.  I also used my new Lacy Labels cricut cartridge.  I think I am going to really really like that cartridge.  All cardstock is from PTI.

FWF Good Friday

Wow yesterday Unity has some fun stuff going on. The new releases are really great I had to order inside and out! Awesome sentiments! If you don't have the Unity Blog bookmarked you definitely should. Every Thursday is Unity Day and to join in the fun you need to check out that blog! 

My card for today is one that I will be teaching at our May 1st retreat!  I used Daisy Bucket paper and made a gift card holder.  I think this is such a fun way to give a gift card!  During class you will be able to use whichever sentiment you want under the circle - to say thanks or happy birthday or whatever.  I used lots of Ippity stamps to create this card. 

To see all the Ippity stamps available to purchase from me click on the 2 Ippity blinkies on the side bar.  Today is the last day to take advantage of the Spring Sale lots of goodies and Free shipping and be entered into the contest to win Fishy Philosophy!!
