This week, Krafty Girl Rosie is your hostess and her challenge theme for you is: 

EMBOSSING!

Embossing is one of my favorite techniques and yet

one that I often forget to do!  When I learned how

to emboss with stencils, it created a whole 

new love of embossing for me! 

My card today features dry embossing with 

the Holly stencil and heat embossing for the berries

of the holly leaves and sentiment. 

After running the stencil through my Big Shot

die cut machine to get this awesome raised image, 

I put the stencil back on the panel and used the 

NEW Original Olive ink to brush over the

top of it.  It creates kind of a 3D effect.  

I masked off the little berries while I was inking

the leaves and then used VersaMark clear

embossing ink through the stencil and added

some glittery red embossing powder.  

 I love how it has kind of a vintage feel

with a bit of bling!

Here's a closer look at the embossing:

 I hope that I've inspired you to join our challenge 

this week and share your own creation 

using the theme of embossing. 

And guess what??? This is also one

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps January 2019 New Release BLOG HOP

Hello, Hello! I'm so glad you're here to visit me today.

We have a terrific BLOG HOP from the Kraftin' Kimmie DT 

and guests featuring the awesome NEW products for this month
from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

ALL the NEW products are now in the Krafty Shop!
That's FOUR NEW stamp sets, TWO new stencils,
TWO new sets enamel dots and the PRETTY IN PINK ink!
Maybe you'll be making your wish list as you hop along :o)
If you love it all there's a special GIMME KIMMIE kit
that's available at a discount for a limited time.

I have a one layer card with some gorgeous gold embossing
to share with you today.

I used each of the star stamps from HEARTS and STARS

(which is quickly becoming my one of my go to sets)!

I'm loving how easy it is to create one layer cards

with this set (and the new stencils)! I used my stamp

platform to get all the stars on at once and then

heat embossed them in gold.  Then I added a sentiment

from Let Your Light Shine using the KKS Wicked Black ink.

Here's another look that shows the gold embossing better. 

Isn't it awesome how well these sentiments coordinate with this new set?!

I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges:
The Card Concept #106  - Photo Inspiration

(my inspiration is the gold and black in the photo and my style is CAS)
Make it Monday Challenge #87 Use Words or a Sentiment
Cupcake Inspirations Challenges CIC461 Sparkle and Sprinkle (photo)

There's a lot more inspiration waiting for you from the rest of 

the KKS DT and krafty guests - all  you have to do is click on

Guest Designing for the Card Concept #100 challenge celebration

Well hello crafty friends!  So nice of you to visit me today.

After many months of a crafting break, I was thrilled when

 the lovely Kim asked if I'd like to be a guest designer 

for the Card Concept #100 challenge.

And when I saw the beautiful inspiration photo 

for this challenge I was even more excited. 

Oh my gosh! Seriously sooo many things

you can take for inspiration from this.  

I was drawn to the pink and gold colors

and the pumpkins (I LOVE pumpkins!)

I pulled out a bold sentiment stamp called 

called Be Full from Neat and Tangled and

made this Clean and Graphic card. 

I swished pink distress ink around on my

base panel and then heat embossed the 

gorgeous sentiment in gold.  

Here's a close up so you can see the embossing a little better

There's a special celebration for this 100th challenge going on

over at the blog so be sure to check it out as well

as the amazing inspiration from the DT there!

Hope my card inspired you in some way. 

Hugs and happy crafting! D

12 Krafty Days of Khristmas - Day TWO (30% off on February 2017 release stamps)

Good happy Saturday friends!

I'm happy you're here to visit me because today

is DAY TWO of the 12 Krafty Days of Khristmas

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE!!

Each day from the 1st through the 12th the Krafty DT

is showcasing a creation from one of the new releases

of each month of 2017 by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.
PLUS each and every day during the 12 Days the stamp sets
that we released during that particular month will
be ON SALE but ONLY for that day!

DAY TWO represents the  month of February 2017
where we released ALL ABOARD, SKY'S THE LIMIT,
SPORTY BOYS and YOU'RE MY HERO.
Such a great month of masculine stamps!

I chose to feature SPORTY BOYS today and
put a Christmas twist on it - take a look!

I had a little help from a couple other stamp sets 

Merry and Bright Birdies (embossed snowflakes) 

and Shake It Up! ("Christmas").  To create the 

sentiment I masked off part of two different ones

and then embossed one and then the other.  

The main image was stamped on a kraft card blank

in a very light brown memento ink and 

then colored with Prisma color pencils.  

Oh boy this card should go in the record books 

for me.  I can count on one hand the number of

times I make a completely one layer card!!

I really love how it turned out. The distress inks

and embossing really helped add some depth to it.  

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
4 Crafty Chicks Challenges #379 (4CC379) - Anything Goes
Fab n' Funky Challenges #373 - Christmas
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes (11.28.17)

Thanks for stopping in to visit me! Holiday Hugs! D
