Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - 2024 RECAP Celebration!


Hello krafty peeps! I'm excited to be sharing
one of the special stamp sets and a 
sweet two-piece layering stencil for the 
4th day of December recap of the 
AHHHMAZING krafty goodies introduced in 2024. 

LOOK OUT WORLD! is definitely 
one of my go to stamp sets for all things
baby - expecting announcements, baby
showers, births, birthdays, scrapbooks,
gifts and tags.  
And...when this uber adorable stamp
set is paired with the super fun
two piece layering stencil called
New Baby, the cuteness is off the charts!!

I made two cards to share with you today.
Here's the first, made for my niece who
recently announced that she is expecting 
a wee little lass. 

The KKS hybrid ink colors that
I used with the stencil are: 
And 
After stenciling the colors, 
I then traced through the stencil
with a black midliner pen. 

I decorated the inside too with
one of the sentiments from the
set and the left over piece of 
the stenciled panel. 

And here is the second card that I made
for my cousin's son who is having a baby boy 
this next year.  


I love how you can use the little icons to
create a custom background and not have
to worry about matching paper colors with
how you want to color the main image. 

Here’s how I decorated the inside too

Guess what? 
and

The sale price is only good until December 12th
(and while supplies last - some of these
will likely sell out).  
Kimmie is holding all packages until
the Canadian postal strike is over.
You'll get all your goodies in one 
package and save the shipping costs
due to the bundling. That's a win! 

Thanks for stopping in to visit me today.
Krafty Hugs!

It's time for our February Release Peeks to begin

Spring hasn't quite sprung yet, but it's right around the corner! These cute animals will help you celebrate!!

It is called....
Layers of Eggs!

(a 2 piece layering stencil!)



It's perfect for all your cards, scrapbook pages, mixed media and more!

Oh my GOSH this stencil and stamp set just couldn’t be any more perfect together!!
I had some inky fun with the first layer of the stencil and then pulled out some of my lonely (aka haven’t been used in far too long) crafty pastes to use on the top layer of the egg decorations. I went for lots of color because I’ve always loved the bright colored Easter eggs. In fact the more colorful the better for me! 
To finish my mini slimline card, I added one of my favorite die cuts and colored up these three images from the stamp set and added two of the sentiments on the front. 
I LOVE how it turned out!
Hope you do too!  



You'll get to see all of our brand new goodies in action over the next few days of the February Krafty Peeks and everything will be released at our LIVE Release Party

Are you excited about what you've seen so far!?  Are you ready for more?

I hope your answer was yes because we've got more fabulous fun for you today!



The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from

 You're Swan-derful! 


These sweet swans and their accessories are going to be perfect for so many occasions! Mother's Day, Anniversary, Valentines or a special, swan-derful friend! 

I think this is just the sweetest stamp set.
The large and baby swan are perfect for 
a Mother's Day card - so that's what I made:



The background panel was made by brushing
Precious Pink ink (which happens to be the
special Ink of the Month) for the base layer
of the two piece stencil, and then adding
a little bit of Pretty in Pink for the second
layer of details to add to the hearts.

Challenge #673 - Mid Month Inspiration - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Good morning and welcome to our  

Monthly Saturday Challenge Mid Inspiration Post

We are back today with an inspirational post showcasing more ideas to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing!
We can't wait to see what you create!

This month our Saturday Challenge themes for you are: 

Pumpkins & Stencils!

You can choose one or both - whatever inspires you!

The Ink Of The Month, which will be on sale all month long, features the gorgeous Goblin Green Ink Pad, Cube and Reinker! Grab it now to add to your collection.


I get the pleasure of being the mid-month challenge hostess today and here's my card!


Can you guess what my favorite thing about fall is
from my card today? I have a love of all things
pumpkin!  Each and every one of them is unique
(just like snowflakes in winter).  We love to 
decorate with them, carve them up on Halloween
and of course have all kinds of pumpkin baked
treats and special drinks! YUM - so YUM!

Keeping in line with the challenge themes
I used the Autumn Pumpkins stamp set
To create this background, I first sprayed the stencil
with some Goblin Green ink re-inker (mixed with a little water)
and turned it over onto a piece of white cardstock.
Once that panel dried, I laid the first piece of the stencil
on that panel and then used it as an embossing
piece to get the raised pumpkins on the cardstock.
After embossing, I then used the stencil again to 
ink the pumpkins with Pumpkin Patch ink.  
This technique gives it such a great texture and 
detail with the raised and colored parts. 
Lastly I used the second piece of the stencil 
to ink the peduncles (stems) and leaves.
I really love how it turned out! 
To finish the card I added a couple layered
oval die cuts and the row of pumpkins that
I colored with my copic markers and then 
fussy-cut to put on the panel. 

Every month we post a brand new challenge with two 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.

This month's challenge will remain open until October 31st.

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

Gifts Galore for Christmas! - Stencil Fun

 Howdy! Thanks for popping in to visit my blog today. 

I'm sharing a card I made recently using a fab two piece layering
stencil from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps called GIFTS GALORE.


I used the Cozy Christmas Kids stamp set and
the Ruby Red and Fresh Fields hybrid inks. 
The child image is actually a little girl stamp
with pony tails but I trimmed off the pigtails
before coloring the image with my copic markers. 
I love how it turned out and hope you do too!! 

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
