Another Monday to Hip Hop Away!

Happy Monday! Wow are things busy! I did get to create on Friday which was nice. I hope to get that up and posted this week. 

Well last week you saw one of my frames. I mentioned that I made two of them and this post shares my other frame. 

I used my wonderful Ippity Because of You set. I created the flower myself and used my Stampin Up butterfly die to create my butterflies. The paper is cosmo cricket and the other items are generic purchased from Michaels or Hobby Lobby. 

 
Here we are again, I just love this photo. It is my backgrond on my computer and my i phone. We had such a wonderful weekend this Valentine's day  that this frame really puts my feelings into one little saying. He really does make good times great. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband. 

On to some close ups... 

 
  
  

There is is... I hope you like it.  I really enjoyed making these frames.  Check out my blog later this week to see the art work I made for my bathroom.  Love it! 
Have a wonderful Monday and make sure to check out all of the great work.  Unfortunately I wasn't able to use the new sets which are being debuted today but you can see them at a number of the other talent along the hop!

Hippity Hop Monday

Another Monday means the beginning of another week!

I decided to branch out from the typical cards and stated playing with some picture frames that I purchased from Micheal's for $1.00.



I used some dp and other embilishments and a little bit of glue.  Next thing you know I have this frame.  I am really happy with the end product. I 
The Ippity stamp I used was from the "Straight from the Heart" set.

I would share the other one I did but my husband took the charger for the camera so I wasn't able to download or shoot some more.

Here is a little close up of the heart I used - it is wood finished with paper.  I added some rubons from my stash and did some faux stitching around the heart.



Enjoy! And make sure to check out all of the other great work.  I will try to get my other frame up later this week. 

Have a great one!

Hippity Ippity Hop with a little love!



Happy Monday Ippity Stlye!  Since it is the season of LOVE I decided to use my amazing Ippity sets with hearts.  I went with the Straight from the heart and Becuase of you sets. I just love these sets.  I used the Love stamp on the left side of my card and the Hello stamps for my sentiment.  I also used the Heart from Straight from the heart set on the background and at my main heart with bling! I adorned this heart with 3 different colors of rhinestones that I got at Michael's today. They are 40% off!!! Thank go because it took a lot little rhinestones.  I think it was 52 in all.  I like it but don't think I will be doing it again.  I used two different colors of pink and the black.  I like red and black together so I thought I would give it a try.  The pink heart in the middle is from Martha Stewart embellishments that I bought last week when they were on sale.




Now for the rest of the card. I used SU paper and ribbon. If you look closely the white paper is actually shimmery white. I also used my pink and clear copic glitter pens to add some glitter to the hearts.  The ink is all colorbox chalk inks. I am really loving the coverage with these inks. I scored on a bunch of full pads from Tuesday morning a while back and have purchased some more colors with a 50% coupon from Michael's (those cat eye sets). 

Well I think that is about it.I hope you like my card and don't forget to check out all of the other talent today!



Don't forget that you can get these amazing stamps from me by checking it out right here!  Just ask your self, Have I seized my Ippity yet?  Well if you said no, what are you waiting for!


Today is also MLK Day so as a teacher I have the day off!!! I hope to get some crafting done and hope you have a wonderful week!

You're One of a Kind! with Friends of course!


Happy Friday ladies. Here is a card I made for my students to give to another teacher who is teaching them a special reading program.  She decided to take them out to dinner and a movie.  I told the kids that I would make them a card to give to her as a thank you.
I hope you like it.  I cased it from Cards magazine November issue. The card was titled Simplicity by Julie Campbell. 

Make sure to check out the Unity Sale going on! It's HUGE! 

Have a great Friday!

Raspberry Suite Challenge with Style!







Dawn McVey is hosting another great Raspberry Suite Challenge! I just love the color choices in all of her challenges! This one includes soft yellow, light aqua, chocolate and cream.


So I have this new stamp from Unity and I just had to use it!  I had so much fun with this card.  This wonderful stamp is in the Treasure to Me stamp set. It was only available for a short time and then... not until CHA!






Here is a close up of this great stamp! I used some Basic Grey paper from teh Lemonade collection for the dress... isn't it cute?  I just love it. I also used some of my copic glitter pens and some generic ones to color the accessories.  I used a copic to color the "chest".  I also cut out the bottom sash and the sash around the waist from the lemon tart paper from Papertry ink. I used the yellow glitter pen from copic to give it a litlle bling.  All my other papers are Papertry ink too (dark chocolate and aqua mist).  I used the french script bg stamp from SU to creat a background. I heat embossed it with clear ep.  My ribbon is martha stewart. 

Well I hope you enjoy my latest.  I am hoping to get into my craft area more often once our new windows are installed. We are looking at the Friday so hopefully the basement will be a bit warmer. It gets rather cold down there seeing it's unfinished.  My wonderful husband promises me this will make a difference.

That's it for now! Have a great week!
