I had a lot of fun playing around with one of the January release Ippity Itty Bitty sets, #004, Bee Better Together. It’s perfect for Valentine’s Day! I actually made ATC (Artist Trading Cards) using this set along with some punched hearts and bling. I colored the bees with at you Spica glitter pens from Copic. All inks are Memento.

I would like to share a great project that a local charity does using Ippity Stamps. It’s called Tomorrow’s Rainbow and they do a lot of Thank You cards! The animals are so friendly and great to work with every day. There are 2 sets that are used in the cards, Simply Home and Alphabetically Adorable, which look wonderful in the rainbow colors.
AND
the winner of the blog candy from the Thanks{giving} Blog Hop is Trisha!
Such a colorful card. Love the pretty big, colorful flower and the sentiment.
I’ll be sending you the Straight from the Heart set, IPK-105! Congrats!!!
So I found some awesome Baker’s Twine in Halloween colors at Really Reasonable Ribbon – isn’t it fab?! As I was putting this card together for the Chick Challenges {with Ippity} Challenge this week and couldn’t resist cutting a piece of chipboard for the pumpkin then wrapping it with this yummy twine. All the stamps are from
IPK-134 That’s Creepy 5 piece set
and the punch along the bottom is Martha Stewart and paper is My Mind’s Eye.
Sooooo, “Happy Halloween to you”!
Blog Candy!!!!!
Leave a comment and I’ll send you some of this COOL Halloween Baker’s Twine! I’m sure you’ll find a use for it even though Halloween has passed…maybe Thanksgiving or on other Autumn projects?

Hello to Monday and this week’s hippity hoppers!
Have you ever layered ink colors on a card? It’s a neat technique that gives depth to your stamped images. You can stamp in a light and dark tone, 2 lights, 2 darks or even more than 2 ink colors! The possibilities are pretty open.
Think of all the colors that are in patterned papers today – like I have in my sample below. There are 3 colors: light blue, red and pink. I used 2 similar ink colors when stamping, one light and one dark. If you’re using this combination, the lighter color can be used as a shadow color, background or just as an accent. Open your mind, it really is fun and gets you using more ink pads that you may otherwise have sitting around!
Ranger has a great color strategy in their Adirondack colors. There are lights, brights and earth tones which all complement each other, especially if you want to stay with monochromatics. Fun indeed!
