my new favorite STAMP...

I have a NEW FAVORITE stamp...
one of those that you reach for over & over again.
one that can be used in so many different ways.
for so many different occasions....
i love it so much I stamped it repeatedly over & over again on my layout below...
:)
that FABULOUS stamp is the "lovelovelove, etc" stamp that I used to create the heart background!
{this stamp is from the ippity kit - Because of You}
check it out...

you stole my heart...and i love you more today than yesterday....
along with the adorable heart
are from the {ippity} kit - Straight from the Heart












This heart background was SO EASY to do...I'll be posting tomorrow on the {ippity} blog a tutorial on how to do this...
also, Michelle has some fabulous {ippity} matters she is sharing today, she would LOVE if you stopped by...

december daily album...

DECEMBER 1ST!
WOW! Can you believe that?!
I am sharing just a few pages from my December Daily Album that I have created. If you are NOT familiar with creating a December Daily Album...then you may be wondering why all my pages below are so plain and well, pretty boring boring boring! :) The concept behind the December Daily album is to have journaling pages created in advance...and then DAILY add in pictures, jouranling, embellishments, and whatever you want to a page a day. TYPICALLY, each page also has a number indicating which date of December that page is for...I am saving that part for the actual day that I am going to do my journaling.
if you would like more information on creating a december daily album...










I used {ippity} stamps as well as Unity Stamps on some of these pages.
WELL TODAY is day NUMBER 1...
and I am going to save my pictures of complete pages for another time...
:)

I created this card using the Just Wanted to Say... {ippity} Kit
This kit includes 8 sentiments that are a
MUST in any card maker's collection of stamps!

I think this stamp might be one of my ALL TIME favorites!
Here I just used it to make a simple...easy peasy kinda card.
This stamp is from the kit Because of You as well...

AND a stamp collection is NOT complete without an ADORABLE alphabet set, right? This kit is fittingly called, Alphabetically Adorable.
