March 2023 Challenge - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

  Good morning and welcome to our new 

Monthly Saturday Challenge

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Are you ready for another krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing?

We've got some fabulous ideas for you 

and can't wait to see what you create!

This month the challenge themes for you are: 

SPRING, CIRCLES and/or YELLOW/GREEN

You can choose any or all - whatever inspires you!

Such great themes this month. 

Yayyy Spring! Oh I can't wait for the flowers 

to start blooming (and for the snow to melt away).

I chose the prompts of Spring, Circles and Green

(there's a little bit of yellow added in there too

 - but it wasn't intentional, lol.) 

Here's my card featuring one of the 

uber adorable stamps from the

clear stamp set called 

BUNS & PEEPS!

I used a bit of sparkle around the edges too - 

here's a close up that maybe shows it better.

So now it's over to you.  Will you join the challenge this month?

Every month we post a brand new challenge with three themes to choose from, and a mid month inspiration post with even more creative ideas! You are welcome to enter as many times as you like.

These must be new creations and you are welcome to use any stamp, however, using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp products will earn you double entries!

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges #473 - Use Sequins

Hello friends!  Happy weekend!  

Hope you have some fun plans - or maybe some great relaxing ahead.

This week the theme challenge for

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES #473 is SEQUINS.

I must admit that this was really a challenge for me.

Even though I ooh and ahh when I see people using sequins

on (or in) their creations, I really struggle with them.

I don't know how to place them and it really kind of

bugs me how they stick to my finger and don't go where I

want them to easily.  LOL real problems right?!  

Anyway...because I wanted another opportunity to create with the 

NEW Fawn'd of You stamp set (by artist Cheryl Grant)

I decided to accept this challenge.   I'm quite pleased with

how it turned out!  Take a look:

Easter is coming up soon and this set is so

perfect for that or just a general spring "hello"

card for someone you love.  I had this die cut panel

in my stash (from forever ago) that worked so

pretty over the top of a piece of yellow gingham 

patterned paper.  Lots of layers but still a fairly 

clean design. And what a fun sentiment too!

In addition to the KKS Challenge #473 - Sequins
I'm also entering this card in these great challenges:
Cardz  Galz Challenge #92 March Hares (or Rabbits)
Cute Card Thursday Challenge #574 Spring Fever!
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenges - CUTE
If You Gave a Crafter a Cookie - Challenge #113
(inspired by the flowers and springy theme of the cookies)

I hope that you'll decide to play along with us this week.

Every time you enter one of the KKS challenges your

entry is put in the pot to win a $40 gift certificate

(drawn after the close of each month).  There's no 

limit to how many times you can play along - but

you do need to submit a new creation (not previously published 

or shared).  We love to see what you make - especially

with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products.  

Thanks for visiting me today.  Hugs! D

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps NEW RELEASE BLOG HOP - March 2019

Hello! Oh boy are you in for a treat today!

We have a special blog hop celebration for the 

March New Release at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS.

You can now find ALL the  new stamps, 

stencils, dots and ink in the KKS Store today.

And of course there's the GIMME KIMMIE kit

for those of you who want it all - at a discount! And why wouldn't you?
What a fantastic release this has been!
Let's recap what we've shared with you this week...

Three new fantastic and fun stamp sets
LLAMA DRAMA by Melissa Baker-Nguyen
FAWN'D of YOU by artist Cheryl Grant
YOU GIVE ME WINGS by artist Neda Sadreddin
Two awesome new stencils
LEAVES & VINES and STARBURST
A new gorgeous SPARKLING SAPPHIRE blue hybrid ink
and the oh so pretty SPRINGY enamel DOTS!

My hop card today features another of the main images
from FAWN'D of YOU.  The adorable images from this set

just touch my heart, and are so much fun to color.

This time I colored with Prismacolor pencils. 

I'm trying to get more comfortable with them and

I find that I do better with smaller images still. 

Once again I used the March KKS Sketch for

the layout.  I love using sketches for inspiration. Do you?

This could be an Easter card or just a springy "hello" card.   

Thanks so much for hopping in to visit me today.  I hope
you will check out the blogs of the other Krafty Krew and
Guests for more wonderful krafty inspiration from this release.
