Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - October NEW Release Peeks - DAY 3!

Goooood morning and welcome back to Day THREE of our 

October Krafty Peeks!!

Today we are thrilled to share a super fun winter themed stamp set by artist Neda Sadreddin called FLAKY FRIENDS!!

This is just THE CUTEST, cutest, cutest

stamp set! (Can you tell that I love it?!)

 I made to share two cards to share 

with you today.

Here's the first one

To create this scene for the snow peeps

I used the Tree-mendous layering stencil

(layers 1 and 3) with Aqua Adventure and 

Ocean Opulence KKS hybrid inks),  

and the Swirling Stars stencil 

with Astro Paste in Frost Bite White. 

The images were colored with copic markers.

And here's the second card that I'm sharing today:

The bunny is just as cute as the snow people!

Just imagine all the fun you will have

making winter themed cards. 

There's ALSO a brand new 

wintery stencil for you called

BIRCH TREES!!!

Check out both these fabulous new krafty products as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs today!  I promise you'll be SO inspired!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - October NEW Release Peeks - DAY 2!

 Welcome back!

Did you enjoy yesterday's Peeks?
Well, we are back with MORE Christmas fun!

Today we are spotlighting a new stamp set 
from artist Michelle Houghton called HOLIDAY POSTAGE!!

Who's totally into the postage craze right now?

(Me, Me! My hand is wayyy up in the air!)

Michelle's images and sentiments fit inside the frames so perfectly!

These adorable images are the perfect size

for lots of different creations!

I was inspired to create tags using each 

of the images and the fun sentiments.

Take a peek:

Christmas tags need lots of sparkle

(in my humble opinion) and embossed

sentiments.  EEEEE I think they are so 

CUTE!! What do you think? 

Just imagine all the fun things you

can make with this stamp set!!

As you head out on today's Krafty Hop you'll get to enjoy lots of gorgeous creations from our Krafty Team featuring HOLIDAY POSTAGE and also our incredibly festive new HOLIDAY ORNAMENTS set of layering stencils in combination with some of our other incredible products such as our Krafty Kolours Hybrid Inks!

The beautiful pumpkins in a row are 

from the AUTUMN PUMPKINS 

stamp set. The sparkly leaves in the 

background are from a KKS stencil

called Falling Leaves,which is 

now retired, but the gorgeous 

Leafy Mandala stencil is available.

I added a large, lovely die cut 

sentiment from Lawn Fawn. 

The tiny leaves that are added to the

sentiment are from the 

Leaves are Falling! stamp set.

August/September Release RECAP! Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

 

This weekend we are having a very special

RELEASE RECAP EVENT!!

In case you missed it, our most recent release featured
FOUR brand new stamp sets and TWO sets of layering stencils and we're going to celebrate them today!

We have a blog hop that starts at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps blog and the Krafty Design Team has all new projects featuring the latest krafty goodies! You can also find links to each of their blogs below. 

So grab a beverage and sit back to enjoy all the inspiration!  The team will also be sharing them in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group and on other social media channels!

Every year the fall releases are my favorite

and this year that is still true.

My hop card features the newest Krafty Komeback

stamp set called HEY THERE, PUNKIN!

The background panel of this card 

was made by inking the  

base layer of the Pumpkin Patch stencil

(this is a 2 piece layering stencil)

with KKS Pumpkin Patch ink   

and then lightly spritzing it with a spray

made with water and the 

KKS Pumpkin Patch reinker 

 before gently placing a piece of 

cardstock down on it to absorb the ink. 

The sentiment is from Pumpkin Kisses 

that I masked and stamped twice to get 

the two colors (Wicked Black &

Fresh Fields).

Here's a close up of the colored image. 

I used copic markers and popped the image 

on the card with some foam dots.

 I hope that you enjoyed my card today.

Please go visit the other DT members 

and see what they have created too.

PLUS we have something very special as well!! 
Krafty Girl Patti will be doing a LIVE on Sunday morning at 11am ET featuring our S'MORE FUN stamp set so we hope you can join us!!

We hope you'll join us and help us celebrate!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - September Monthly Challenge

Good morning and welcome to our 
New Monthly Challenge
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Are you ready for another krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative mojo going? We've got some fabulous prompts for you and can't wait to see what YOU create!

This month our challenge themes for you are:

Back to School/Primary Colours and/or Circles

You can choose one theme or combine them!
Enter as many times as you like all month long!
It's a Choose Your Own Krafty Adventure!

I've chosen theme of Primary Colours 

(Red, Yellow and Blue) for this month's challenge. 

AHOY SAILOR! is one of favorite stamp 

sets and I felt it's nautical theme would

be perfect for these colors.  I'm also

channeling a back to school vibe (more

for college level) with the sentiment.

 

The sky was made with the 

Krafty Scenery 4 stencil and some

Designer Denim ink. I used the

Krafty Scenery 3 stencil for the ocean

(filled in with copic markers in B26 & B24).

The subtle texture in the background

is the Rugged Rope stencil used

as an embossing panel. 

I hope you like my card and that I've

inspired you to grab some of your 

crafty stash to join the challenge.

Remember, you can choose just one,

or two or all three of the challenge themes.

And...you can enter as many times as you

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Skrappy Challenge - September 2024

Good morning, my Krafty Friends!

It's September and that means it's time for a new
Skrappy Challenge
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!  

The theme of course is ANYTHING BUT A CARD!

For this challenge you can make anything that strikes your fancy....except a card!  So design a new scrapbook page, bookmark, tag, altered item, planner page, art journal, ATC cards...whatever you like! 

Just make sure to include some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products and make sure it's a new creation!  

*NEW - Our Challenges are now combined with the 

Saturday Challenge and the Christmas Challenge in the Krafty Friends FB group! So feel free to enter any or all of these - the monthly prize is a $20 voucher to the Krafty shop!!!  Woohoo!  To enter, be sure to upload your photo to the September album in our Krafty Friends FB group.  

I love the KKS Skrappy Challenges because 

it's so fun to use my stamps, stencils and inks

in different ways.  More inky playtime and projects

means more krafty happiness!

This month I used the Fruity Fun! and

Our Farm! stamp sets as added embellishments

on a scrapbook page.  

The watermelon stamp was transformed

into a honeydew melon by masking off

the seeds and stamping in Totally Taupe

ink.  Copic markers in E40 and YG21

were used to color the outside rind.

I added the little farmer stamp because this

page is about a new and very delicious

find at the Farmer's Market.

This paper has been sitting my stash

for ages - I thought it was perfect for this page!

   

Thanks for stopping in to visit my blog today.

I hope that I've inspired you to play along
