Love Should Be Returned

Hello to all the Ippity Hoppers today.

All H{Ippity}Hop participants can be found on the

Ippity Blog.

Today I have some cards made with two sets.

LOVE IN RETURN

and

WHERE YOU SHOULD BE

I was making some cards with other stamps that I own

and I got to thinking if I could recreate the look

I was achieving with my Ippity stamps.

This is what I came up with.

I liked how it turned out,

but I wanted to take it a step further and

challenge myself to recreate the card in a different colour.

So using exactly the same stamps I made a few more.

Like this one.

And this one.

And lastly, I wanted to recreate the card but in a bold style. 

Despite being almost the exact same card as each other,

I find they each evoke a different feel.

 I have a few recipients in mind who suit the different cards

depending on their personality.

This is the first time I sat down and created in this way

 and I have to say I quite enjoyed the journey!

I ended up making about ten of these cards

 all in different colour ways.

You should try it sometime.

These stamp sets can be purchased right here off this blog.

LOVE IN RETURN

WHERE YOU SHOULD BE.

Remember all prices are in Australian dollars

 and postage within Australia is still free.

Whereever you happen to be in the world today,

 I hope it is a good day for you!

Enjoy your creativity!

Sweet Baby Girl

Welcome to this weeks Ippity Hip Hop.

 For a list of other Hip Hoppers and more Ippity Inspiration go to the Unity Opportunity Blog.

Who doesn't go all soft and girly when they've a baby girl card to make.

 I go all mushy when I make a baby card, especially a girl baby card!!

I coloured the hanging hearts with a blender pen,

added a punched lace border that was stencilled with another scrap punched with the same border,

sprinkled on some fine glitter, tied a bow,

stamped a sentiment and my beautiful card was done.

I used the Ippity set

MOONBEAMS AND HEARTSTRINGS

As we all know, real life gets very busy sometimes and somethings just don't get done.

One thing that hasn't been done here is getting my postage rates sorted.

What does this mean for you?

Postage is still

free for Australian residents

if you order stamp sets from this blog.

That means you could make a saving from $5 - $15 on postage.

Don't miss out!!

Thanks for dropping by today!

The challenge for this weeks Ippity Hop was to create something with embossing,

 and this is what I made.

I used a Cuttlebug folder to emboss the green background panel.

The butterflies where stamped onto paterned paper, cut out and popped up on dimensionals.

The stamps used are from DEVOTED

and
