H{ippity} Hop March Challenge the "TWIST"

Good Morning everyone.. hope your weekend was full of fun. It was such a busy week here and the weekend was even more. The kids were off for spring break and we had visitors everyday.. so it was a nice busy time. So last night I finally got to do some projects.. I wanted to do a page in my ART journal. I just love the process of splashing paint on a surface and getting creative.

For Week two of the H{ippity} Hop Challenge we were introduced to some fantastic colour combinations and I want to add those colours in my journal.. so Spring like.

Using some of the stamps from the Fall 2010 Ippity Release I made this page.. I used the heart flower stamp from the How You Doin'? set, The Post and the flowers from the Cherish Your Dreams set, The family stamp from the Here and Now set. I have all the colours melded together with a pop of the pink.

For this weeks H{ippity} HOP challenge (IHHTC3) comes the fun part..

it is the TWIST and we are to use some

hand stitching on our project..

Using a very thick needle and some wonderful Twinery Bakers Twine I stitched on this Spellbinders die cut piece.

inking and stamping the family stamp around on the petals. finishing it off with a MM pink brad.

Here is the March Challenge with a twist .. I just love it all


Make sure you come and check out my Tutorial for making an ART journaling page on the
That's How Thursday
on the Ippity Blog. I will go through the steps on using your stamps for a great
Multi Media Art journaling page.

The Master List of today's H{ippity} Hop is HERE

But you will want to check out the Lovely Eva to see what she had made with today's challenge.



Have a wonderful day

H{ippity} Hop March Challenge week 3

Hello and welcome week 3 of March's H{ippity} Hop challenge

I am in love with the photo inspiration.. I want to make that pillow, as soon as I can make it to the fabric store.. isn't it just amazing.

This Saturday past my boys were out all day moving furniture.. me and the little one were home having a cuddly girl day. Our plans included making some home made cupcakes.. These were good.. I think I need to make them a little fluffier but still they were yummy.

So yesterday I wanted to make a cute layout with some of the photo's I took of her eating them.

Cuppy Cakes

Using the perfect Cuppy Cake stamps from Ippity.

I used the shape of the flowers from the photo inspiration, the colour inspiration which were also perfect from this Cosmo Cricket (togetherness) papers and diecuts. Love when you have the perfect papers for challenges.

I also used the scalloped stamp from the Sing a New Song
ippity stamp set.

I just love how you can use these stamps to create beautiful cards and layouts.

Now it is time to go check out the Beautiful and Inspiring Eva.

Have a wonderful day, I will be spending today with my parents , sister and her 2 girls.

we are crafting up a storm!

Hugs,

Angie

H{ippity} Hop

I'm BACK!!!!

Well what can I say today..

It is March 7th.. and guess what.. I am here H{ippity} Hopping with the Ippity Design Team.. well let me tell you how excited I am to be doing this full time now!!

If you have not been on the Unity Blog I am being featured by the lovely Eva.. I have a different project I am working on for the She Art Workshop eclass I am taking.. hosted by Christy Tomblinson.. love it!! Not only am I on the Ippity team but I will also be designing some stamps for Unity as well. I have that beautiful Artista blinkie in my sidebar.. it makes me happy.. happy.. I am beyond excited .. but enough about me..

Today we have a special hop.. Our beautiful Eryn will be leaving and we all wanted to wish her the very best in her new adventure with her company Vintage Glam.. she will be opening her little boutique in the near future and she is so excited about the adventure that is waiting for her, and we are so proud of her for following her dreams.. she is such a wonderful person.. this card I made sums how I feel about her.. forever!!

love you..

Here's to you Eryn.. you are such a wonderful person and I will love and cherish our friendship always.. one day I am going to meet you ,so I can give you a big hug !!

I just love this sentiment.. and it took me 3 tries to finally get the mojo and feel for this card. I wanted it to be perfect.. I guess the mojo was working very slow yesterday and I took a break and made this.. I love how it all turned out. I used this weeks IHHTC3 colour challenge. yellow, green, pink and blue. Eva picked some awesome colours to work with this month.

Soft spring colours and these October Afternoon papers from ducks in a row are perfect.. every colour was in that striped paper.. love when that happens.

Let's get this party on it's way.. next is the

wonderful and uber talented beautiful friend Eva.

I can't wait to see everyone's cards today.
