Hippity Hop Monday!

Well, it is Monday again!  I've got a couple of cards here - I'm not thrilled with them but I love the paper and the stamps....this first one looks great with the flower and the border punch but, upon reflection, I think it was crying out for stitching.  I love these new Ippity papers and these stamps from "Now and Always," and "Fall for You."


The next card didn't look like I pictured it in my head but it's too late now"-)  I love that chandelier from "Regal Greetings."  It is gorgeous and elegant.  The chair is from Unity's "Comfy Cozy," and it is adorable!  The other stamps are from "Fall for You," as is the patterned paper.


Sometimes, our ideas don't quite work but we still can't abandon them!  Have a great Monday and visit all the other bloghoppers today.  Here's the list!

Remember to get your Ippity here!!

Both of them are just lovely. I know what you mean about sometimes cards not turning out as you imagined them..but these are just superb and I loved them. Because each card you create is a work of art :) that is my philosophy.

These are both wonderful cards Jennifer! I still post what I've created, even though it may not be what I imagined or wanted, 'cause then I could look back on that card and change it for a future card. Remember...that's what 'creativity' is all about! *smile* Your ideas here are great and I'm really loving these papers...I want that couch too!
