Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps June NEW Release Blog Hop

Hello sweet friends and followers! 

Have you enjoyed this week of peeks

for the June NEW release clear stamp sets

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS?!

Make sure to pop on to the blog and the
Facebook Krafty Friends page to find out how you
could possible WIN the entire new release!!

ALL the NEW sets will be available for purchase later
today after the New Release Party at 7pm!

Before we party we are having a blog hop to
feature the FIVE fantastic sets from this month.
Sit back, get comfy with your favorite snack and/or
drink and be prepared to be inspired :o).

My hop card today features the second of the 

adorable new sets by artist Cheryl Grant.
This one is called LULU'S WHEELS.

Eeee.... I just love that convertible bug!
I think this set would be good for a graduate or
a retiree just starting the next adventure (phase) of
their life.  So many fun ways too to color the car!

I kept my card clean and simple for a change
(if you follow me at all you know that CAS is not
my normal go to style).
I love her blue bug!  Wish I had one for me to drive
around in the summer time :o)

You will get to see ALL of the new sets in action as you
sit back and enjoy the hop! Then be sure to join us TONIGHT
 at 7pm EST for our LIVE Online Release Party

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges #384 - Die Cuts

Happy Weekend crafty peeps! 

Today is the start of a new month of challenges 

(and another opportunity to WIN a Krafty prize)

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES!

Our hostess for Challenge #384 is the crazy talented

Krafty Gal Marilyn.  She has chosen the theme of

using Die Cuts.  Marilyn is the queen of die cuts

(in my opinion).  I'm always in awe of her creations 

using them.  I have quite a few myself but often forget 

 to use them (not sure why - it must be old age LOL).

For my card today I used the sweet little farm animal

from the NEW Cow's It Going  clear stamp set,

and 3 die cuts (the grass, the cloud and the banner).

Other supplies used: twine (Stampin Up!) papers (SugarPea Designs)

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Hello friends!  This week I get the pleasure of being your krafty girl 

hostess for Wonderful Wednesday at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES

Are you as stunned as I am at how fast this year is going by?  

Tomorrow we are half way through the year and before you 

know it it will be Christmas time again. Gulp!

  

Now that I've depressed you (LOL) how about I cheer you up 

with a fun little creation using Lucas and his sweet pup 

from "SKY'S THE LIMIT" ?!  You have to smile when you see this duo!

I made this card as a special request for a little boy who will soon

be a Big Brother to twin siblings!  I'm told he loves planes and 

dogs so how much more perfect can it get than to use this stamp set?

Okay so enough from me.  It's time for you to crank up your

crafty engines and propel yourself into your crafty space to

create something to share with us this week.
We want EVERYONE to be able to play along so your
submission can use ANY stamp and can be any theme, 
any style, any designand it can be a card, a scrapbook page, 
an altered item....you name it!  It must be a NEW creation though.  
At the end of the month one random winner will be chosen from
all the submissions for the whole month and will receive a
$20 Gift Card to the shop!  Let's see your krafty stuff!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Krafty Komeback "DandyLion"

Happy Fri-YAY!  

Today we have another fantastic re-release of

a retired rubber stamp set.  We call it the 

KRAFTY KOMEBACK at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

If you aren't familiar with the krafty komebacks they are

previously retired rubber stamps.  When Kimmie

switched to the fabulous clear stamps the original

rubber ones were no longer made.  When they were sold 

out they were gone for good. However, Kimmie was able to
have her artists re-make some of the fan favorites
in the new fabulous clear sets.

I'm so excited about this month's krafty komeback 

because she was on my wish list for a long time 

and then when I decided to get her she was gone.

I was jumping for joy to see her again (with some 

new subtle differences that  make her even cuter)!

Meet DANDYLION! She was one of the most popular
images from artist Annie Rodrigue!

Here's my creation using this AhhhhDorable stamp

My background is made with Distress inks and the NEW 

Distress Oxide inks.  I love love love how fun they are

to use.  I only  have two colors right now but will most

definitely be getting more! I also watercolored 

Miss Dandylion with the regular distress inks and 

added some depth with Prismacolor pencils. Such a

fun card to make!  I'm so tickled to share it with you today!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
