Sketch Challenge #46~

Remember...you've got 2 weeks to create your entry for our sketch challenge!

Here we are with some fantastic inspiration from our {ippity} chick and this week's....

(challenge runs from October 4th to October 17th)

Barbara Bruder

Villa Hills, Kentucky USA

Here's what Barbara shared with us:

My name is Barbara Bruder and I hail from northern Kentucky. Being an ippity chick, I love to show off the wonderful and diversified ippity stamps. {ippity} and Unity stamps are so well made and so versatile and each line compliments the other. What a great find for me when I happened upon ippity and had the ability to become one of the select few chicks. I've been stamping for 15+ years and have a great time. What a wonderful way to express yourself, give inspiration to others and to give joy to a card recipent. Sign up to be a follower on my blogs and don't forget to visit my blogs for inspiration.

Isn't she just the sweetest? Check out Barbara's blogs and give her some comment love here:

Barbara also has lots of fun cardmaking supplies in her Etsy shop:

Angie Reece

Lehi, Utah

Now, if you don't know Angie, here the scoop:

Hi! I’m Angie Reece and I have been a rubber stamper/card maker for about 6 years now (I’ve lost track!). I am a pediatric ICU nurse, so crafting is my stress reliever and way of staying sane! It all started with my cute mom having a card party and being the dutiful daughter, I helped-then got addicted!! I discovered Unity and again, addicted. When I found {ippity} I knew it was for me. I’ve been an {ippity} chick since April 2010. I have an awesome husband that totally supports my habit and gave me a new craft room for my 40th birthday last fall. He also supports my yearly get together with all my crafty friends. Thanks for playing along this week with the Chick Challenge!

JenMarie Taylor
Marietta, GA

JenMarie is such a sweetheart-and she is all over the web with her amazing {ippity} and Unity creations! Here's what JenMarie shared with us: I've been stamping since around 2002...I can't believe it, wow time flies! I joined SCS in 2006 but became really involved there when I moved to GA in 2007. The stamping community is amazing and I've met some amazing people! SCS is where I heard about this company called Unity... I was stalking them before they even opened!

Once they launched the IPPITY line in 2009....I knew I wanted to be a part and signed up the first day! I love being an IPPITY CHICK and sharing these fabulous stamps with others!
