~ H{ippity} Hop! ~

Welcome to another round of H{ippity} Hop. For today, I'm showcasing a mini LO (4x6) that fits into an Ikea flip-over picture frame. I do these mini LOs whenever I have new photos and slot into those frames. Any old ones then go into a 4x6 album which is easily available in stores. These are fun to do and very fast to accomplish unlike the traditional 12x12 LO that takes me a good 2 hrs or more to finish sometimes.

I made use of Life's Little Moments stamp set. One of my fav stamp set as they are so well suited for scrapbooking.



Here's  my mini LO:


I used Scarlet Lime's December 09 kit. I've a knack of buying kits and not using them so my resolution this year is to use up previous kits before getting new stash (stamps exempted)! Luv this particular photo of us (we seldom get a chance to take a family photo) where we were on a fishing trip in Indonesia last summer. Sheer bliss! The quote was stamped on transparency and the back coloured in white ink to make it stand out.

My next project is a card created for a {ippity} challenge which ask to use black, neutral and another colour on the card. I chose kraft & red and use Kissmas & Mistletoe set.



My card:


 I'm starting my Xmas card early this year with a hope that I will eventually amass enough for Xmas this year! Let's see! Background embossed using Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a great week ahead!
