Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Skrappy Challenge (September 2019)

Hi Hi! Happy you're here to visit me today.
Today is the start of another month of Skrappy fun

This is the challenge where we ask you to make 
ANYTHING BUT A CARD.  
For me, this is always a good stretch of my crafty
brain muscles.  There's so many different projects
you can make - a scrapbook page, bookmark, tags
photo frames, journal art, planner pages, 3D projects, etc. 

You have until September 23rd to enter and share
your own fantastic creation. 
As soon as we have at least 5 people playing there
will be a $20 prize up for grabs to spend in the
Krafty Shop (must have used a Kraftin' Kimmie
products to be eligible to win the prize)! 

I found this sweet little metal tin in my stash 
and decided to decorate it for a Halloween treat.
The NEW Halloween stamp sets for this month are
perfect for projects like this.  I used MONSTER MASH and 
I WANT CANDY (sentiment)  to make a sweet treat holder. 
I'll put candy corn inside for my hubby. 




and of course the top needed a little monster too! 


Thanks for popping in to visit me today!
Krafty hugs to each of you. D

August 2019 New Release Peeks DAY THREE - Monster Mash

Welcome back to DAY THREE of the August 2019
sneak peeks for KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!
Have you been enjoying the peeks for the first couple
of days?  August is always such a fun month because
of the halloween theme - and this one is especially awesome.
Hope you are having as much fun seeing as I am sharing!
Image may contain: text

Today we have a very fun and funky set called
MONSTER MASH by artist Melissa Baker-Nguyen
For me it's like playing with spooky paper dolls,
so many fun combinations that you can make with this set.
No photo description available.

I made a funny and furry fella who kind of reminds me of a
combination of Sully and Mike from Monster's Inc.
(LOVED that movie).  I think he's just a scream - LOL!
I found this Doodlebug Designs paper in my stash
and thought it was perfect for this image.  Just too fun!
At the time I took this photo I hadn't finished the inside yet.
I chose one of the sentiments from the NEW PUMPKIN KISSES
from yesterday's release.  Such an awesome month!!

Tomorrow afternoon is the LIVE ON-LINE RELEASE PARTY
in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group.  We hope you'll
come join us for some fun conversation, more peeks and
opportunity for a prize.  Right after the party you
can find ALL the NEW August goodies in the KKS Shop!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - August 2019 NEW Release sneak peeks DAY TWO

Hello! It's DAY TWO of the August 2019
New Release Sneak Peeks from 
KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!
Image may contain: text

Today we have an awesome fall/halloween sentiment
set that's sure to be a must have in your collection.
The fonts are so neat - and I LOVE the larger scale!
It's called PUMPKIN KISSES by artist Melissa Baker-Nguyen.
No photo description available.

I combined one of the halloween sentiments with another
image from yesterday's new release set SCAREDY CATS.
That beautiful spooky green glow was made with the new
GOBLIN GREEN hybrid ink.  Of course, I also had to
add some of the SPOOKY DOTS too.  (I honestly think I
might be addicted to using enamel dots as an accent on my cards).

Hang on to your halloween hats, brooms, pointy shoes
because there's another day of peeks coming tomorrow
and I guarantee that you will love it! 

Don't forget also that Saturday at 2 pm EST
is the LIVE ON-LINE RELEASE Party with 
Kimmie and krew in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group.
It's always a fun time so I hope you'll join us.  
ALL the new goodies will be available in the KKS Shop
immediately following the event.  Whoo Hoo!

August 2019 New Release Peeks DAY ONE - SCAREDY CATS

Whoo Hoo!  It's time for us to start the
Sneak Peeks for the FABoolous new Release
stamp sets for August from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!
August is traditionally the Halloween release.
So if you love Halloween hang on to your hats
cause I'm pretty sure you are going to be blown
away from the cuteness of this month's stamps,
stencils, ink and enamel dots!!!

First up is SCAREDY CATS by artist Neda Sadreddin!
Image may contain: text

This is such an adorable cat and halloween set. Look at those big eyes!
No photo description available.

My peek card features a couple of these not so spooky kitties
and the NEW BATS & MOONS STENCIL.  I ran the
stencil through my die cut machine to get the embossed pattern
on the back ground piece.  I almost hated to cover up so much
of it with the top panel because it turned out so fun.

There's a few of the fun new SPOOKY DOTS on here too.  

The LIVE Release Party will be on Saturday at 2 pm EST
in the Kraftin' Kimmie Friends Facebook Group
Image may contain: text
where we have lots of fun with Kimmie.  And THEN...
the new products are loaded in the KKS shop
right after and ready for you to purchase! 
I hope you'll join us!

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges #522 - Under the Sea

Hello Friends - Happy Weekend to you!
I LOVE Saturdays for many reasons but one
 of them is that it's always the start of a new
weekly theme challenge at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

This week our DT hostess Miss Sabrina has chosen 
the theme for Challenge #522 to be UNDER THE SEA!


My DT creation features the NEWly released
Mermaid Scales stencil  and YOU'RE MER-MAZING!
stamp set.  I used some BoBunny glitter paste through the 
stencil (masked around the mermaid first) to create 
some fun and glittery texture on my background.
Then I added some of the new Underwater Dots
and distressed the edges some.  Really love how 
fun it turned out - and must admit I didn't completely 
miss my patterned papers (sorry not sorry).  

Isn't this mermaid beautiful?! I loved coloring
her hair (and wish I had it on my head haha). 

I used a new silicone paint brush to apply the glitter paste
but honestly think that using a scraper works better when
the stencil has medium to larger spaces to fill.  

Thanks so much for stopping in to visit me today!
I hope you'll join the challenge this week too. Hugs! D
