Sketch 80

Happy Saturday friends! So glad to have you along with us again. We're getting a touch of fall here today with cooler temperatures and a bit of much-needed rain our way. A good day for some crafting- don't you think?

The Sponsor:
We are thrilled to have ippity girl Taylor~Made by JenMarie as our sponsor this week. Don't know what ippity is? Well, let's fill you in!

"What is {ippity}? ippity is a FRESH, NEW, TRENDY, FUN way to enjoy a discount on high quality stamps and crafting products. Ippity also offers women the opportunity to make some money by sharing their ippity products with others at retreats, stamping, and scrapbooking events, church events, creative get-togethers, and fundraisers.

When {ippity} was announced in November of last year I knew in an INSTANT I wanted to be a part of this from the BEGINNING! I love being able to share such quality stamps that are made in the USA...not to mention an incredible value! I'm having so much fun!"


The Prize:
Up for grabs this week to one random participant is this absolutely adorable {ippity} rubber stamp set Totally Happy.

The Sketch:

Another fun sketch this week courtesy of our oh-so-talented Michelle! Feel free to rotate the sketch any way you like. Just have fun!

The Guest Designer:
We couldn't let this sketch pass by without introducing you to this talented crafter, our guest for this week, Clare Buswell. Here's more about her:


"Hi, my name is Clare Buswell. I live in Ireland. I only discovered the joys of card-making in the past year but have always loved arts and crafts. I studied graphic design at college. Before my daughter Isabelle was born I worked as a full-time artist."

And here is Clare's gorgeous creation using the sketch.

Design Team Inspiration:
Last but not least, our design team's take on this week's sketch, using {ippity} stamps.
