Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie

Hey there, Hi there, Hello!!!

Happy Wednesday to you :o)

It's my favorite day of the week -

okay maybe my second favorite day

because Friday is my favorite.

Anyhoo....Wednesdays are awesome

from a crafty perspective because at

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES

the theme is Anything Goes!

This means you have a LOT of krafty

options and can use any one of them for the

challenge this week.  It can be any type of

creation, an color scheme, any sketch, 

yep...Anything Goes!  Who doesn't love that?

I received some colored pencils for my birthday

in April and have slowly been playing with them. 

They aren't nearly as easy for me to use as

my trusty and loved copic markers but I'm 

going to keep trying as I've seen some fantastic

creations with colored pencils and it's fun to

stretch myself creatively!  

My DT creation to share with you today 

features the beautiful CINDERELLA

I wasn't going to make a square card initially but 

then I just couldn't cut up more of this paper than I

needed to.  I wanted all those fun fairy tale words to show

so I needed a bigger space to work with. 

Do you do that too?

I'd like to enter this in the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenges - Anything Goes (6.28)

Sweet Stampin' Challenges - Lots of Layers

Thanks so much for visiting me today!

I hope you will come play along with us this week

at Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges.  Each challenge you

enter during the month qualifies you to be eligible

for a $20 gift card to the KKS Shop!  

Wanna WIN?  Go get krafty!  

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges -Challenge #387 "Circles"

Oh hey if you are here to visit me today I'd like

you to pat yourself on the back and say 

congratulations for making it to the weekend!

Here we are already at the last Saturday challenge

of this month (wow!) at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE 

and the theme for this week is CIRCLES. 

Oh my gosh...as I typed this I started singing the

phrase in my head "You spin me right round round..."
and I don't even know what song that is from - hehehe.

Funny about the power of suggestion and I apologize if

I've now stuck that (or another song) in your head too - lol!

Anyway...back on track here...we want to see you use

circles on your creation this week.  It could be lots of circles

on the background or it could be images in circles or it could

be a circle card or circle tag.  Okay I'll stop - I think you get it!

Here's my card to share with you using one of the newest

mermaid stamps called SANDY SEAWATER.  I used a

sentiment from one of the other fun mermaid sets called

Serena Sparkles. Of course I used lots of circles too :o)

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

Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #247 - Make Your Mark 

and 5th Birthday Celebration (Congrats to the ATSM team!)

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges - Wonderful Wednesday

Happy Wednesday crafty peeps!!

Whoo Hoo this week is cruising right on by for 

me and that means the weekend is that much closer!

Many of you know that Wednesdays are always 

Wonderful at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES

because that means the theme is ANYTHING GOES!

Your entry can use ANY stamp and can be any theme, 

any style, any design and it can be a card, a scrapbook page, 

an altered item....you get the idea...ANYTHING goes! 

 One requirement though is that it must be a NEW creation. 

And you have until June 20th at midnight to entry this challenge. 

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! If you wanna WIN you need 

to go get krafty and show us your krafty stuff!

If you need some extra inspiration you can use the June Sketch. 

 The sketch will last all month long and if you use it in ANY 

of our Challenges or WW's during that month you will get 

an additional chance to win a store gift card! 

Here's the sketch (see below)

I LOVE to use sketch's but this time I kept my card CAS.

I had colored this image from LOOK FOR RAINBOWS

during my color along video a couple months ago but

finally got it on a finished card. The sentiment is from

RAINY DAY LULU.  The past 3 days have been very 

rainy with big storms in the evening so I thought this 

image was perfect.  June is Montana is often colder 

than May and definitely more wet.  It sure makes

things fresh and green though and I love that!  

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

Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #246 Anything Goes

The Brown Sugar challenge Blog #254 Anything Goes

Crafting from the Heart Challenges #163 Anything Goes

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:

Wednesday and our NEW Krafty Scrappy Challenge), we will
