ippity IHHC9 bloghop…

hi everyone!  you can find the bloghop list here.  this weeks challenge was to make bday cards.  on the first card, i stamped and cut out two flowers from because of you-ippity.  on each flower, i cut off one petal, making a butterfly from the flowers.  then i pierced a line of “flight”.  there is a small piece of kraft paper, for the body.

I really like what you did with the stamps in the 2nd card!!! I have been looking at that life stamp, trying to figure out a "different" way to use it. You came up with exactly what I was trying to think of...LOVE IT!!

THANKS for the inspiration!!!
