{ippity} Christmas in October Blog Hop



Welcome to the {ippity} Christmas in October Blog Hop.  
If you are coming from Kim's Blog you’re on the right track. If you want to start from the beginning go to Heather’s blog.  I also have a list of the participating blogs at the end of this post. 





Simple, cute, and fun. That's what I think of when I start creating my Christmas cards each year. I started with the Blitzen line from BoBunny and played with some Smooch spritz and {ippity}'s Season of Joy stamp set. This set has it all - from sentiments to titles to labels to embellishments. Well, see for yourself!
See what I mean? So many possibilities. Here are just 3 of the cards I created using this set (I also made layouts - come back to see those in a few days!):


On the first card, I "Smooched" the white cardstock with Vanilla, then added the Blitzen cut-out. Stamped "Merry Christmas" onto a circle I had inked, then added the Blitzen chipboard and baker's twine. It's difficult to see in the photo, but the Smooch really gives it a pretty shimmer. The second card also uses a stamped circle and Blitzen paper and cut-outs. On the third card, I stamped the oval label in a soft green and "Happy Holidays" in holiday red, cut it out, and mounted it with foam tape. The decorative ornament strip was a cut-out. I made a bunch more cards using this set - I love how simple and fun it is!

To purchase this set, visit my {ippity} blog and order using the $24 Stamp Sets - Holidays and Occasions drop-down menu.
