{Ippity} by Unity

I have this card up on the Unity blog today!

I used the shine, shine, shine and The Best Ippity sets.

Lots of paper piecing going on today!  Whew.  Plus, the stem of the lamp and lamp shade were colored with Copic markers.  I didn’t realize the camera didn’t pick it up, but there are rhinestones on the lamp stem as well.

I LOVE those banners in The Best set.  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Did you know Ippity is ONLY available from an Ippity chick?
Ippity has the same great quality stamps as Unity, but sold only by these FABULOUS chickadees.
