Happy Easter Monday!!

Its Monday! YAY! That means it is H{ippity} Hop time! So, you know the drill. If this is your first stop hop on over to the {ippity} Blog to see what's going on. There is also a list of blogs to visit there too.

Today I have a birthday card to show you. I made it for my SIL...I hope she likes it! I got the idea for this card (and the AWESOME tutorial!) over on Cindy's blog. She rocks the tri-shutter card!! If you want a great tutorial on how to do these you should check out her blog, The Crafty Frugalista.

I am also entering this card into the Unity Challenge, which is to use a bird or birds on a card.

Now, here is the card:


I totally copied Cindy's card found here. For this one I used three {ippity} sets, "Party Hat Wishes", "Season of Joy" and "Quotes a 'la Happy". They can all be found on my ippity sales blog with information on how to buy them.

Thank you for stopping by!

Love, Patricia

So Many Birthdays!

First of all, it is Monday, which means that it is time for the H{ippity} Hop! if you started here head on over to the Unity Blog for more information on the hop and to get a list of blogs to visit.

Second, what is up with April having so many birthdays! You would think that July was a cold month or something!! LOL! It seems that every time I turn around lately there is another birthday and another card to make. So, guess what I am sharing with you today? Yep! You guessed it! A birthday card!

This one was made for my son's friend who turned 9 yesterday. Jarod was a little concerned that his friend was going to think that the flower and hearts that are originally on the cupcake stamp was to "girly" so I altered it a bit so the flower and hearts were not seen. I think it turned out pretty good! I used the {ippity} "Cuppy Cakes" set for the cupcake and, of course, the ever so versatile "How YOU Doin'" for the happy birthday sentiment. I got the idea for this card from the very talented Lisa Arana! You can see her blog post for the card here.  
Check out my {ippity} sales blog for information on how to get these sets or any other {ippity} sets!

Thanks for visiting!

There is also a new kit out and I cannot WAIT to get mine in the mail!

That little bird is so cute!! It would also be great to use for the Unity Challenge!

Ok, so on to my project. This week I made a card using both Unity and Ippity stamps.I also used buttons so I could enter it into the All Things Unity challenge! Here it is:
