Hello Ippity and Unity friends!

What did you think of the Ippity Summer 2010 release yesterday? Awesome isn’t it? I won’t have it in stock until early September, but if you would like to place a pre-order, drop me a line and I’ll throw in the shipping at no charge!

Today’s card is a little of a hodge podge with some new and some old embellishments. The new is the fabric – beautiful Moda fabric of BasicGrey’s Urban Couture line. The Play Date Cafe’s challenge of using dark brown, green and beige fit right into my plan!

With fabric on the card, I had to sew! The faux water in the vase is zig zag stitching! Oh, and the vase? That’s a greeting block from the “Just Wanted to Say” set tipped 90 degrees! See how useful Ippity stamps are??

Happy Monday and hello to August. The summer F L E W for me, how about you?

Today is  H{ippity} Hop day! You’ll see all sorts of great projects using Ippity Stamps, including one here from me. I kept it pretty black and white today (pun intended :) ) with just a touch of pretty green. I had to have some sparkle in there, so I worked more with some embossing powder that has glitter in it.

The black that I used to emboss the leaves is my absolute favorite from P K Glitz. It’s called E P Max Black because it’s a wonderful solid black with sparkle included. So pretty indeed!

Hello Ippity and Unity Friends!

Welcome to this week’s Friends with Flair, I’m glad to be here with you!

For a main list of all the participating blogs today, go to the Unity Blog for all the awesome links!

I’ve got a card here for you with some heat embossing for the main image. I love to emboss! The trick is not to overheat it. Watch for the shiny surface to appear then move along to another part of the image that looks matte. Embossing powder with glitter in it tends to be challenging as you’ll probably smell the glitter heating up before the powder is melted. It’s definitely possible as seen on this card, but do take care when working with the image.

My card for this week didn’t start out as a holiday card, but I guess it could be one once you take a look at it. I just love that little angel from the May 2010 KOTM! She’s so cute and perfect for the card.

I used some embossed metal from TENseconds Studio on the card also. The embossed design is from one of their molds run through the Big Shot Express. I will be using metal more on my cards – such a great effect and wonderful beauty!

Friends with Flair, July 9

Ippity Stamps, IPK-122 Delightful Little Things
