Chick Challenge #23

Happy spring, {ippity} fans!  I hope you are enjoying some warm spring weather where you are.  We are enjoying 80+ degree weather here in Maine right now-unseasonable, to say the least!  But we won't count on the warm temps sticking around just yet.  New Englanders know what I'm talking about!  Our sponsor this week probably knows exactly what I am talking about...meet this week's

(challenge week of March 22nd-28th)

Cheri Howard

Fairbanks, Alaska

Here's a little bit about Cheri: I am the only {ippity} Chick in the state of Alaska. My husband and I share our home with a furbaby named Lex. We are currently working on adopting a newborn to add to our family! I love lots of different kinds of crafts in addition to stamping. My day job is being a teacher, but in my spare time I like to read, knit, sew, crochet, cook and spend time relaxing with my hubby. I first started using Unity stamps in 2009 and have been hooked ever since!

Visit Cheri's personal blog for some fabulous inspiration:

You can also shop at Cheri's Etsy shop for all of your {ippity} needs:
