Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps New Release Peeks Final Day & Anything Goes Challenge

Hello friends! Happy weekend to you!

I sure hope wherever you are is warmer than

what we are experiencing in Montana.  

Thursday evening it was -36 degrees F w/wind chill. 

It's supposed to be warmer today but barely above 0. 

The cold weather makes for a great excuse to stay 

inside and get crafty!  Speaking of which...

it's the final day of the February release sneak peek 

previews for KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS 

and the start of a new weekly challenge. 

The theme is ANYTHING GOES (as it always

is during release week).  So link up and join

us this week - we love to see what you make!

I can hardly wait to show you the stamp set for the final 

day of our peeks.  It's by our own Krafty Gal artist 

Allison Cope and it's called FUNNY FISHES

Just look at all these fun images and punny sentiments!!!

As soon as I saw this set my brain immediately went

to an aquarium.  Never having made such a thing

before it was quite a crafty trial and error endeavor

but I'm happy with how it turned out.  

I used some silver foil card stock around the edges 

and a piece of window sheet to create the front panel

of the aquarium.  I colored the bottom piece with a 

black copic marker for the base. 

The scene inside was created with the new 

Aqua Adventure hybrid ink.  I splashed a few drops of

the ink refill on my gelli plate and then smooshed my

paper on that.  When that dried, I sponged over the

Rocky Road stencil (released last month) toward

the bottom and lightly about half way up the panel. 

Then I took the mini ink cube and just randomly

pressed it down on the panel.  As a last step I 

spritzed a bit more of the ink on the gelli plate

and misted it with water and put the paper back

down on it.  The images and rocks on the bottom

were all stamped in the Granite Grey ink and then

colored with copic markers.  I used some Nuvo

glitter spray in green apple on the chipboard

pieces  (part of the special February Add ON bundle) 

to make it look like the floating greenery in the tank.

It's really shimmery in real life but unfortunately 

just did not photograph well at all - quite bummed!  

Here's a closer look from a different angle.  

Here's a look too at the special February Add On bundle

It's a great compliment to this month's stamp sets and themes.
