H{ippity} Hop

I broke out my Tim Holtz die and embossing folder for this card. The fabric sheets from Love My Tapes die cut so well with my Big Shot. The sentiment is from Ippity's Regal Greetings set. I decided on a whim to use the "Missing You" sentiment and didn't realize until it was all put together that the word GONE stood out so clearly in the text on the bird's body. No, I did not plan that~sometimes things just work out right!
Visit the Ippity blog for a full list of participants today or click here to visit JenMarie, I'm sure she has an awesome project to share with you today!

SUPPLIES:
Stamps~Ippity Regal Greetings
Ink~Ranger Distress Ink, Unity Hybrid
