Welcome 2011

H{ippity} HOP!!

Welcome to the first H{ippity} Hop of 2011

I am so excited for you all to see what we have in store for this year.. it is going to be so much fun.. We are changing it up.. putting a new face on H{ippity} Hop Monday.. New and exciting challenges. I will personally be doing more layouts, it has been so long and I really miss doing my pages. So if you have not come from Eryn's Blog.. make your way to the Ippity Blog and don't miss a single thing.. it is all going to be fresh and new..

Let's make 2011 SHINE!!!

2011... Cherish your Dreams








I wanted to do my first layout for 2011.. and this sketch for today's challenge was just Fabulous!!

It is easy enough to change up your card sketches and make them into sketches for your layouts, and the stamps from Cherish Your Dreams are wonderful embellishments for your layout as most of the Ippity stamps are..

Using the Cosmo Cricket Circa 1934 papers in the 6x6 paper pack were also a bonus for this photo that I took of myself on New Years Day.. I am one of those people that love to document myself at the beginning of the year.. and see how I change over time. I hope if you are a card maker of scrapbooker you will give this sketch a try . Remember to check every Hippity Hop Monday for a new part of the Month long challenge will be revealed.


Make sure you head over to the Ippity Blog for all the details on this challenge..


New Year.. New Challenges... New Rules.
2011 is going to be amazing for Ippity!!

Now for the wonderful Eva.. I can't wait to see what
she has to show us today.



Have a wonderful Day.. all today's participants are on the Ippity Blog.. and if you want to share your Ippity Projects on H{ippity} Hop Monday's.. just go to HERE and every Friday you can sign up for the H{ippity} HOP Monday.. Would love to see what you have made using these stamps. It is also a great opportunity if you are an Ippity Chick to promote your website.

Have a wonderful Monday!! Welcome 2011


Hugs,
