Hippity Happy Hop!!

How are you today??  I hope you're having a great hop so far!  
I'm so excited to share some things with you today.  My first is another baby card made with the uber fabulous July Kit of the Month. 
I LOVE this kit!!!
and more of my favorite October Afternoon Papers :) 
notice the fan folded paper under the image.  I first punched the bottom with one of my new favorite border punches (from ek success)  I then folded it back and forth, just like the fans I used to make as a child :)
I then wrapped some jute around and tied in a bow on the front...kinda fun dontcha think!
sorry, had to remove card for publication :)

and how about a quick and funky card... Donna Downey style!
I used the UBER COOL Wayward Blooms...this is one of the coolest ever!!! 
The sentiment is from' The Artist In You'
I stamped it all in Versafine Black Onyx on Basic Grey Kraft papers
from my blog you hop on over to my friend Robyn's blog!
