H{ippity} Hop-Flowery Congrats!


Happy Monday!  I am wore out from an eventful weekend.  Friday we went out with neighbors for dinner and drinks, and Saturday was my oldest son's 9th birthday.  We had 7 boys spend the night!  They were all so good and well behaved, but I am still spent!  I guess I am just getting old! LOL!

I had been wanting to make a card with this trio of flowers from What Matters Most.  I thought it would look perfect with this DP from MME's Be Loved collection.  I used some lace and burlap string from my stash, and brown tiny type sticker letters from Cosmo Cricket for the "congrats" sentiment.  I also made the flower on the DP in the lower left corner 3D by layering distressed circles in the center.  I needed a girly graduation card for our babysitter.  I think she will like it!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  If you are interested in purchasing some {ippity} goodness, check out my {ippity} page HERE!
