Ippity is a fabulous new company with superb quality like Stampin Up but Ippity is all unmounted on cling foam. I simply love unmounted because it saves so much room and they come less expensive. All you need is an acrylic block and off you go.</p><p>Any comments, suggestions or requests let me know!</p><p>Thanks and till later....</p>Mariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15963530265959800899noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4442972400309429318.post-82464262647391654422010-03-29T06:29:00.000-07:002010-03-29T06:38:33.844-07:00Get Crafty with Rubber Stamps<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNcAdt-ICPccwD3l-iJnBfD4NrieTrsAMBqRCcDbNSz_T5Ty9iKT7eS6Vle8CF6sW3yJKRm6F-wYYY-XDRUH4SBfhUpNAG2el5p5kTehVf2TEKCJd_VQgI-fPbsuk_nKb6HmBj09VrUY8/s1600/IMG_5618.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 331px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454049645562807058" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNcAdt-ICPccwD3l-iJnBfD4NrieTrsAMBqRCcDbNSz_T5Ty9iKT7eS6Vle8CF6sW3yJKRm6F-wYYY-XDRUH4SBfhUpNAG2el5p5kTehVf2TEKCJd_VQgI-fPbsuk_nKb6HmBj09VrUY8/s400/IMG_5618.JPG" /></a><br /><div>Today is Monday and every Monday I participate in Ippity Blog Hop Mondays. What is Ippity you may ask? Well it's a fabulous rubber stamp company! Ippity is a spin off of the Unity Stamp Co which I have loved for a few years now since they opened! Ippity is a rep based company and I'm proud to say I'm an Ippity Chick! </div><br /><br /><div>So if you want to get crafty with some rubber stamps be sure to swing by my <a href="http://riacreations.blogspot.com/p/i-sell-ippity-stamps.html"><strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#333300;">Ippity page</span></strong></a> and check it out.</div><br /><br /><div>Here is something I made for the Ippity hop. It's a photo keeper folder, perfect in size to store photos. I used little "details" cards to put inside so you can write down all the details from the event. Save these photos until you are ready to scrap them or just use this folder as a safe place for your photos. This holder is definitely cuter than those plastic photo holders you will find. And what a great way to give a gift of photos to a grandparent or someone you love.</div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsF-PCI57k_XqUxEa7fWuBazYo30R7Ucu-9PVqd6Y4rEDSd5ORkgY3pNLilGjMeeAqIIYGNfDEwbbMgCnx8mjni43g-cgNE8rByAaKHQ9xOL1_zZTH6ktg0vP8dXshO21EAp0OeZntUzc/s1600/IMG_6470+copy.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 294px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454048757204677602" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsF-PCI57k_XqUxEa7fWuBazYo30R7Ucu-9PVqd6Y4rEDSd5ORkgY3pNLilGjMeeAqIIYGNfDEwbbMgCnx8mjni43g-cgNE8rByAaKHQ9xOL1_zZTH6ktg0vP8dXshO21EAp0OeZntUzc/s400/IMG_6470+copy.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Inside:<br /><div></div><br /><p><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDojtY_oxF_qWrwuJ_uWlJTuIvexAOOZKZj19L7mDD_Pt3Pg6-gifSMyvV6hK4wl1N5V_aeo-Tqax0yptDOCV3CsFEcpw1Ki6Op9yE5Nn2cbORaLGkegwmvR7pUcV5VDhyL7yjjABGJ5I/s1600/IMG_6472+copy.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454048890704367986" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDojtY_oxF_qWrwuJ_uWlJTuIvexAOOZKZj19L7mDD_Pt3Pg6-gifSMyvV6hK4wl1N5V_aeo-Tqax0yptDOCV3CsFEcpw1Ki6Op9yE5Nn2cbORaLGkegwmvR7pUcV5VDhyL7yjjABGJ5I/s400/IMG_6472+copy.jpg" /></a> I am thinking of adding these little gems to the store soon.

The chickie is glittered up for some glam using Rangers Stickles in diamond and lime green. Why does lime green sound awful? Because it's not really that awful. I've been seeing alot of that color in the papercrafting world and it's fabulous. The base I used here is an Olive Green by Stampin Up and the darker color is a chocolate chip by Gina K Designs. Both are top quality fabulous cardstock. My flowers are Prima flowers and the buttons by Stamp Up.</p><br /><p>Here is a closeup:</p><br /><p></p><p><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJXZP9IJTuevCEKkxDzLCYFz3xJp_Lj8Q1EqUBCxYJao-11X89GdxqDQQYCbNS_bwo_Hr2hbKNlf2DwFzr1czrNR0pCwobmhjQO5As-_TB05C22YQavQT4z0oOWQwhr3n3oFyz4D8tVGk/s1600-h/ippity+green+closeup.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 305px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449987150431133026" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJXZP9IJTuevCEKkxDzLCYFz3xJp_Lj8Q1EqUBCxYJao-11X89GdxqDQQYCbNS_bwo_Hr2hbKNlf2DwFzr1czrNR0pCwobmhjQO5As-_TB05C22YQavQT4z0oOWQwhr3n3oFyz4D8tVGk/s400/ippity+green+closeup.jpg" /></a> This cutie has not yet made it to my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/riaann"><span style="color:#009900;"><strong>Etsy Shop</strong></span> </a>but may very soon.
