H{ippity} Hop!!

Happy Monday & Happy H{ippity} Hop!!


These are ATCs I worked on all weekend. After coloring & cutting each individual fish (and extras in case I messed up!), deciding to glimmer mist the fish, messing up the glimmer mist & redoing the layout 3-4 times (which required recutting & then re-recutting the sentiment) it took me all weekend to finish. But, I'm very happy w/the end result! Happy enough to share it here for the Hop!!

Supplies: Stamps -- Ippity Fishy Philosophy, Cardstock -- SU, PP -- Making Memories, Ink -- Stazon & SU, Markers -- SU, nesties & glimmer mist (somebody stop me, I'm a glimmering fool!!)



And a Bonus!


Last night, after finishing the ATCs, this card started brewing in my head. Not as perfect as I would have hoped but I still kinda dug it. The flower is SUPPOSED to looking Ang b's gorgeous shabby-chic flower here but, I think it just kinda looks shabby, NO CHIC! I can't get that paper rolling technique. I'll keep practicing.....

Supplies: Stamps -- Ippity Fall For You, Cardstock -- SU (hot pink cardstock is from Archivers) , PP -- October Afternoon, Ink -- Stazon & Color Box Chalk (for distressing), nesties (circles), punch & glimmer mist (yes, I HAD to glimmer the flower w/mixed results...)


Your next stop, JenMarie or head back to the Ippity Site for the full list. Happy Hopping!!!


It's Your Ippity Opportunity!

very nice - love the effect of the glimmer mist on the little fishie!! I have been loving Angie's flowers too. Mine never look the same LOL - but then every flower is supposed to be different right so it's all good.
