the September release at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

a yummy snack and start hopping by clicking the

links below to visit the krafty DT.  

You'll get to see lots of fabulous inspiration

with this month's products.  

This is one of my favorite releases for the holidays!

It has 3 sets that I've been wanting for a while!

Let's recap... we started with 

a beautiful and sweet Christmas nativity set

called O' Holy Night! by artist Neda Sadredden

Then we showed you the absolutely adorable

Santa's Ride! by artist Sabrina Van Vloten

and the final peek was of a super FUN and quirky set

called A Crackin' Holiday! by artist Neda Sadredden.

I mean seriously...are you as completely blown away

by the awesomeness of these as I am??!

Three of my favorite Christmas icons in one release!

And guess what... it's ALL loaded in the KKS Shop and

ready to hop right into your shopping cart. 

There's also a new hybrid ink called Precious Pink,

some small Christmas enamel dots and TWO

 new stencils - Twinkle Little Stars and Holiday Lights!  

I used the Holiday Lights stencil (and one of the 

nutcracker images) on my slimline card today.

The globe lights line up so perfectly with the light

strings on the stencil.  So much fun to ink up! 

Now hop on your way!! Enjoy!

Day THREE September New Release Peeks and ANYTHING GOES CHALLENGE - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Hey, hey, hey - it's Saturday!

My favorite day of the week for many reasons

but today it's because it's the final day of the

September NEW release peeks for 

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

It's also the start of a new weekly challenge 

and the theme is ANYTHING GOES!

The final peek of the new release is a 

super fun stamp set called 

A CRACKIN' HOLIDAY! by artist Neda Sedreddin.

There's three nutcrackers in this set and 

some very fun sentiments too. 

Here's my card to share with you. 

I found some shiny gold cardstock and patterned

paper in my stash.  It's sure hard to get a good

photo of it with the shine.  I used a sentiment

from THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS for this card. 

Of course I had to add some of my favorite 

embellishment too - krafty dots from 

the Holiday Dots collection.  

In case you haven't heard ALL the fabulous NEW 

goodies for this month will be available in the KKS Shop

shortly following the LIVE ONLINE RELEASE PARTY

at 1pm EST in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group!

You'll see some links below to the rest of the 

Krafty DT.  Please go visit them to see what they

have to share with you too. Lease a comment at 

each stop to be entered in a special drawing to WIN

some krafty $$ to spend in the KKS Shop.  

How cool is that - you do something really nice

and get a chance to possibly win?! 

I hope you'll join our challenge this week too.

The options are wide open.  You can make any kind

 of creation - card, scrapbook page, planner pages, 

3D project, any theme, any style.  ANYTHING GOES!

Hello again! Welcome back to my blog for Day TWO of the

New Release Products for September 2020 from 

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

September is always all about Christmas 

at Kraftin' Kimmie! Yesterday we featured a 

precious Nativity stamp set.  Today we have 

a stamp set that I've been wanting for ages!!!

It's called SANTA'S RIDE!

by artist Sabrina VanVloten!  

It's so much FUN and perfect for Slimline cards.

So many design possibilities with these stamps!

I have two cards to share with you today.

Here's the first - focused on Santa and the engine.

The sentiment is from THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS, 

it seemed so perfect for this image! 

And just look at those sweet little Christmas Dots! 

Enamel dots (especially the KKS ones) are my

very favorite embellishment to add to cards!

My second card was made for a class I prepared

and taught in the Krafty Kimmie Retreat this past weekend. 

It's a special fold Slimline Card - the first photo

is when it's fully open.

The second photo is when the card is closed

and this last one shows how the fold works

Soooo.... are you in love with Santa's Ride?!

Happy Saturday everyone! Each and every Saturday

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS we give you 

a new challenge theme to create with.  

This week our hostess krafty gal Delphine has chosen the

theme for Challenge #547 of CIRCLES! 

One of my favorite shapes! 

I got a little overly ambitious and decided to make

a slimline shaker card featuring three circles.

That absolutely adorable quirky turkey and fun 

sentiments are from the NEW IT'S TURKEY DAY!

clear stamp set.  What do you think?

Do you like it? I will admit it was a bit of a challenge

for me after only making one fairly simple shaker card

previously. But I persevered and I love it!! 

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Stamp It!

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C551 - Shaker Card

Krafty Chicks Challenges #523 - Stamp Act

Crafty Catz - Challenge #517 Anything Goes w/Twist Not a Square

Simply Create Too - Challenge #164 Make a Shaker Card 

Time Out Challenges - Challenge #169 - Season

What will you make to share with us this week for 

the CIRCLES challenge?  I can't wait to see!!

You can submit your entry in the KKS blog link

or in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group (look for the 

folder to upload it there).  Every time you enter a new

creation in one of our challenges you get a chance toward

winning the monthly prize of a $25 gift voucher to spend

in the Kraftin' Kimmie Shop! And...if you use KKS

products on your entry it counts twice!  

Before I go... there's an awesome VIRTUAL krafty event

happening next week (starting on Friday, September 11th).

This going to be so much FUN!  I'll be doing a couple of the LIVE

craft alongs on Saturday and Sunday.  If you aren't in the group already

Time for a Spooky Krafty Komeback - and a Challenge!

Hello all! What an exciting day it is at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Today we are bringing back a super cute Halloween stamp set

by artist Cheryl Grant that was first introduced in 2013 and has

not been available for several years.  I was one of the lucky ones

to have purchased this in the original rubber form but now

it's available in the awesome clear photopolymer stamp version! 

Not only is this stamp set back in the shop there is also a 

special promotion going on this weekend called

MYSTERY MADNESS.  Everyone who participates in this 

will WIN A PRIZE! There are lots of good ones to win. 

One lucky winner will win their entire order for FREE.

To participate you must first purchase the  

YOU'RE A SCREAM stamp set (separately

or as part of an order - such as your FRUGAL FRIDAY purchase).  

Once you've placed your order 

at www.kraftinkimmiestamps.com

head on over to the KKS Krafty Friends Facebook Group

to find this graphic and claim a number.  Everyone who has 

a number will be a WINNER.  But be quick because

there are only 30 spots available!!!

Remember everyone with a number is a winner.  

  

Are you ready to see it???  It's called YOU'RE A SCREAM! 

I cannot express how very happy I am that this set is back!

I made two cards to share with you today.  Here's the first

using Lucas the Mummy and the new Gorgeous Gauze stencil

(and some of the new Halloween dots).  I colored him with 

prisma color pencils on kraft paper.  Inks used are the

NEW Tempting Tangerine and Purple Pansy hybrid inks 

My second card features Lexi the Spider.

That big ol' purple spider web around her is 

made with foil and the Creepy Cobweb stencil.

This is my first attempt at using foil with the 

Duo Transfer gel (no heat required).  I learned a couple

things in the process but am happy with how it turned out. 

I also used the new Halloween dots and Tempting Tangerine ink.

We've put together a fun krafty hop for you 

featuring this Komeback set and  promotion. 

There's also a new challenge this week and the 

theme is ANYTHING GOES!  Playing along in 

our challenges gives you a chance at the monthly

$25 gift voucher to spend in the KKS Shop! 

Come play along and show us how you're using 

your KKS goodies!  We love to be inspired by you too!

Thanks for stopping in to visit! Enjoy the rest of the 

inspiration from the krafty krew below! Hugs! D

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #545 - PURPLE!

Happy happy weekend! I hope it's a good one for you.

It's time for another weekly theme challenge at

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Challenge #545 is PURPLE!

Use a lot or a little - just make sure we can 

see some of the color purple on your creation. 

I LOVE the color purple but for some reason 

it's not the first color I reach for.  

As I started thinking of ideas all of a 

sudden lots and lots of them flooded my brain.

So....I might be using purple more often!

Have you seen the NEW Gorgeous Gauze stencil?

I am a little bit obsessed with this stencil and used

it for the background on my card.

That lovely gal is from the stamp sets Trendy Tees

and Trendy Tees Icons ("BFF"). 

This card is going to my BFF named Karen

(who by the way loves Purple).

The Purple Petunia KKS hybrid ink worked 

perfectly for the tone on tone look. 

 I added some of my favorite embellishments -

the Krafty Dots.  I'd love to tell you which ones

I used but I have so many of them and I lost track

of labeling them (oops).  But...you can find 

lots of of them in the KKS Shop while you are

shopping the Frugal Friday Specials - wink wink!

Please come play along with our  PURPLE

challenge this week.  We love to see what you make with 

the KKS goodies you purchase. And don't forget

that your creations often inspire us too!! 

Every month Kimmie selects a random winner 

from all the weekly challenges (a $25 gift code to use

in the KKS Shop).  If you wanna win you gotta play! 

Thanks for stopping in to visit! Hugs! D
