A little inspiration from {ippity}

Good Friday afternoon!

The GHWI team has a very special announcement…welcome Get Hippity with {ippity}’s newest Design Team member, Rhonda Miller. We welcome Rhonda with open arms here at GHWI. We also cannot wait to see what her imagination brings to the table. Go check out Rhonda’s blog, “Rhonda’s Place to Share,” to find out more about Rhonda. She is one talented and very busy crafter!

I also want to share some projects created by Melissa. You can find out more about Melissa at her blog, “My Many Journeys.”

Melissa’s first project, “Feel Better Card,” was created with {ippity}’s stamp set, The Simple Things. I love this layout and her colors. This is also a very popular stamp set.

For the second card, Melissa used Unity’s March 2011 Kit of the Month. I love this set!

I hope you have found some inspiration with these projects and visiting the Design Team’s blogs.

Over at GHWI at The Crater’s Lounge we are have your Color Combo Challenge No. 4. We would really like to see your little piece of art. The prize is an {ippity}stamp set of our choice from my Get Hippity with Ippity Sales Blog. The deadline is August 31, still plenty of time.

Have a great weekend!

August Challenge #2 - Add a Bow

It's week 2 for our August progressive challenge. We started the month with anything goes and this week it's anything goes with bows!

We're adding Fresh Brewed Designs

and Stamping with Brenda

to our sponsors from last week The Stamping Boutique and JLJ Designs.

This week the DT made whatever struck their fancy and tied it up with a bow : )

Stacie added a bow to her back to school card featuring Mrs. Czapor's Ruler, Back to School House, and Back to School Background from The Stamping Boutique.

I made a mini 3"x3" card featuring New Wings Cynthia and Cynthia Digi Papers from The Stamping Boutique.

Happy Crafting!

New releases for {ippity}!

Yep, two new releases for the month of August!

And, here they are!

This first one, Make Your Mark, will probably be one of my favorites. Below the stamp set is my creation that I completed with Make Your Mark and for the Get Hippity with {ippity} group (GHWI) Challenge #4.

The second one is Loads of Love. This is so cute. I can think of loads of ways to use this one. (Sorry, had to do it!)

Now, if you come and join our group GHWI over at The Latte Lounge and participate in our Challenge #4, you have a chance to win one of these new sets, or a set from my {ippity} Sales Blog.

We have also started another group on Yahoo, Get Hippity with Ippity. Come join us there too. This group is where we can have group emails and keep the ideas flowing.

I want to say thank you to the The Latte Lounge team for inviting me to post on their gorgeous blog. You will be seeing new sets and some wonderful little pieces of art using {ippity} sets every Friday .

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you all again!
