Monday May 24th {ippity} blog hop

Hello Friends, It is the {ippity} blog hop time. Time to get inspired and see some beautiful creations. :) Please stop by at the {ippity} blog to see the complete list of participants.

Click here if you are interested in buying some {ippity} stamps for yourself. The new SPRING 2010 stamps are here.

I have two cards to share with you,

1) {ippity} card that I created for The Play Date Cafe Challenge #30



Sorry for the picture quality. The weather was so dull that I could not get a good picture. The challenge was to use the colors light yellow, light green and Light Pink. I used PTI Lemon Tart and Spring Moss CS. I stamped the ferns from the {ippity} Fishy Philosophy in Memento Pear Tart and New Sprout Inks on PTI Lemon Tart CS. I color the Fish image from the same set using Copics, cut it out and popped them up using some foam dots. The sentiment was stamped in Brown ink.



2) I created a card using Our Creative Corner Sketch #16 and the new Spring 2010 release {ippity} set Now and Always. I love the flourish in this set. I stamped it off once on a scratch page to get a faint faded image effect - almost like a debossed effect. I can imagine this flourish in bolder colors as well.



Here is the sketch,



Supplies:
Stamp - {ippity} Now and Always & Fishy Philosophy
Paper - PTI CS
Ink - Memento, PTI and Copics
Other - PTI Vintage Buttons, PTI Ribbon, Punches
