Friends with Flair all wrapped up!

The Unity portion of this is the butterfly with the script background stamped on the small sized kraft tags.

The stamp is from the Unity Stampin' Store Kit:

with sympathy

Really not sure why, but this stamp just jumped out at me when I was searching for something pretty to put onto the tags for these boxes.

 I have most  of the supplies to put this super pretty package together, right HERE in my Etsy shop.  

Kraft Boxes

Wrinkled Rayon Ribbon

Tags

Twine

I am hoping to set up a few "kits" with all of the items in one set to sell as a bundle.

Watch for these soon...

Happy Friday and thanks for stopping by!!

More Avocado Arts & Pinterest

 Today I have a couple more cards  made using the very first kit from Avocado Arts -

Sunshine and Smiles.

For these two cards, I used two of the sentiments in the kit.

Each card has a medium Kraft shipping tag, some twine, a little piece of die cut doily, die cut flowers, and a button.

The papers are from my MME 6x6 pads.

My inspiration for these cards came from Pinterest. 

If you have not heard of the site yet, or have not ventured over there - you must do so!!

So much to see and it is so much fun!  I'm hooked on pinning!

Whenever the crafting mojo has disappeared - a visit here brings it back real fast!!

Doodled House...

Just recently got myself some of the new Purple Onion Designs stamps.

I had not heard of them and then stumbled upon a blog using these super cute new designs...

The new releases from them by Stephanie Ackerman are adorable!

I love the "doodle" look!

 (She has classes on doodling, I am in the middle of her first class now)

This card uses the kit Home Sweet Home.

I stamped the house and clouds on some MME designer papers and kept the layout pretty simple.

Below is a matching tag that I made - perfect for a housewarming gift!

Paper Smooches Thanks

Just a quick post to share a card today!

Nothing too fancy here, some scallops, twine, and a button!

The only stamping on this one is the sentiment.

This one is from the Paper Smooches set Sentiment Sampler.

It's a must have, really!  So many ways to use these great sentiments all Kim Hughes handwriting.

Don't ever be afraid to  mix up your sets - even between companies.

I do it all the time to get the combination I'm looking for.

Right now, I am in love with the new 6x6 paper pads from My Minds Eye.  I have 8 of them and they are at my fingertips at all times! (Yes, I said 8)  Couldn't resist getting them all as soon as they came out.

The newest are the Lime Twist and I have all of the Stella Rose too.

I love these smaller papers and smaller designs for cardmaking.

Under the sentiment are simply paper punched dots (scraps actually)...and I finished the card off with some twine - I have this available in my Etsy Shop - and a button.

Thanks for stopping by!

Friends with Flair & {ippity} News

Just a quick post today to share a card and let you know that there are big changes coming to {ippity} stamps!

This card has fabric, twine, buttons, cork....you name it.  Yet it still doesn't look too busy.

The tiny hearts at the bottom are the remnants of some die cut tags with heart cutouts.

The twine is available HERE, of course.  I now have 9 colors of rustic jute twine/string available.

The tree stamp is from the Bella Blvd line at Unity - Country Tree.

I left it pretty plain on this card, but it really has lots of great potential...

{ippity}

It's been quiet for a little bit, and some things are changing.

These are good changes!

Change is good!!

I will still be carrying the stamps and will now have them in my Etsy shop!!

Many of you who have ordered stamps from me have also ordered things you have seen in the shop (thank you so much for that!)

 - now it will be one-stop shopping for you.

There will only be 50 individuals selling {ippity} stamps worldwide!!!

New stamps will be released EVERY MONTH now!!

Stay tuned for more details and the new releases coming soon!!

Friends with Flair Friday Combo

 Happy Friday everyone!!  It is Friends with Flair Friday over on the Unity blog and I have cards to share this week!

Both cards are kind of a combo card in that the images are Unity, but the sentiments are from other places.  I do a lot of mix and matching with my stamps to find the perfect combinations for my cards.  Probably the reason my stamp area gets so messy! :)

Anyway, the images are both from different Unity kits that I have.

The heart below is from Dutch Mustard Soup

The bumble bee above is from Just Be You - Unity Kit of the Month, Dec '10

Both cards also showcase the Divine Twine I have available in full spools, 10 yard quantities, or cute little sampler packs in my Etsy shop HERE!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!!  Happy Easter too!

Tonight I have another Paper Smooches card to share.  Another simple layout and some Copic coloring.

I used two different Paper Smooches sets:

Friendly Flowers

Sentiment Sampler

To finish it off, I added a little bit of the new dark brown twine I have available in my Etsy shop now.

I have been busy with the shop and adding more product.

Some of what's been added are new paper treat bags in different colors and prints:

 I've got pink and chocolate frosting....

 These super cute tiny notebook design treat bags.....

 More for goodies....

And.....dots and stripes!
