I am part of Maria Levine's Got {ippity} Design Team Blog Hop

and I'm so excited!!!

Thank you, Maria, for choosing me as your August Guest Designer!! I am honored! This month we used Vicki's inspiration photo pictured here.

I love the colors in these feathers!!! I made three cards based mainly on the colors in the feathers, but I also used the shaving cream method (have you tried this?? if not: I have linked a tutorial at the end of my post) to make some swirly paper and I think the designs turned out a bit feathery. (I like to use everyday photo paper when using this design method, but you can use any kind of cardstock, too.)

I used the itty bitty fabulous girl for this card. I also used Stitches of Buttons. You can get all of your {ippity} stamps by choosing Maria Levine as your chick at Unity. You can also visit her facebook page here.

For my second card I used the phrase My One & Only from the {ippity} kit Authentic Man and the i love you is from how YOU doin'.

I used how YOU doin' (happy birthday) along with FORE!!! for my third card.

Thanks for stopping in to see my creations. Have a GREAT weekend!

You want to visit Lisa next.



Here is the whole list in case you get lost along the way or if you are just jumping in now make sure you start with Maria and visit everyone! Maria will be giving a prize to one person who hops with us. Just leave a comment on each post along the way. :)
