fall colors

I know it's not Fall yet, but somehow I ended up playing with Fall colors
and playing around with one of the banner flags stamp.

Stamp sets:  {ippity} The Best (banner flags)

{ippity} Party Hat Wishes (sentiment)

Did some actual stitching and faux stitching on this card...

the multi-colored fancy floss is awesome (from We R Memory Keepers--Sew Easy)!

This is for 2 challenges:

'to use ribbon and stitching on your card'

and
for the Simply Scrapping Crafts 
to use no cream or white
(ooops, does the light color around the circles on my pattern paper count?)


I used my fun SEW EASY tools...had it in my 'stash', haven't used it, so took it out for this one!
Truly EASY tool...love it!

Morissa @ Shamrock Stamper started a challenge to use our goodies from our stash and having a shopping ban...sure glad that I'm doing this and discovering what I have and haven't used! *smile*

...yes, that's the quote on my card today.

I'm sharing a card made with my {ippity} stamps and Fiskars punches for the 

Color Throwdown Challenge
and
SplitcoastStampers: No White Cardstock Challenge!

I haven't joined in either challenges for a while...

I've got to get moving on this stuff!  *smile*

I really wasn't sure how I would put these colors together, 

but I do like what I created.

Here is my card:

The only two of the SU colors I have are 'sage shadow and black', 

but I think my other two colors are close, don't ya think? 

The paper pieced flowers and striped paper are from October Afternoon.

Another Day of {ippity} here!

New Releases from {ippity}...YAY!

Today, I am sharing a card that I made using

The Best

which is inspired by the SCS Sketch Challenge from Wednesday, SC335.

(Click on the picture to see more detail.)

All of us {ippity} chicks are showcasing either The Best and/or My True Joy today!

I used four stamps from The Best and it's really an awesome set to work with!

The b/g is the Kraft Glassine papers from Tim Holtz...feels kinda like wax paper with more of a coating and really dry embosses so easy! I used Tim's 'Collage' Texture Fades folder.

Blog Update:  Tim has a post on June 7th, 2011 for more ideas on the Glassine papers!

Isn't that ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon gorgeous?  I love it!
