Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #629 - Use a Stencil

 Happy weekend friends!

We have a new challenge for you this week

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new 

challenge for the week and you are welcome to 

enter as many times as you like.

These must be new creations and you are welcome 

to use any stamp, however, 

using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp products will earn you double entries!

Challenge #626 is USE A STENCIL.

My card today feataures the 

WONDERFUL WAVES Stencil

with some stamps from LUCKY DUCKS!

This is my current favorite type and size of card to make

a mini slimline with a window tri-fold. 

Here’s a view of each panel on the inside too 

Aren’t these ducks just so adorable?! 

I love coloring them and using them

to bring a smile to someone’s face! 

Did you know that there are oodles of great

stencils from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps?

I love using stencils to make my own

backgrounds.  It's so satisfying to 

swirl my ink and brushes across a panel

of cardstock and then remove the stencil

for a magical reveal.  Color therapy

at it's most basic level lol!

I hope that you will pull out one (or more)

 of your stencils and make your own 

fabulous creation to share with us this week.

The monthly prize is a $25 voucher to the Krafty shop!!!

Woohoo!  There are two ways to enter: 

you can link up your creation on the  

Kraftin’ Kimmie blog page and if using KKS products,

you can upload your photo to the album in our

Easter Shaker Card

 Happy Easter to you! 

I hope you are getting to spend the day

with family and/or friends! 

I busted a move yesterday and 

made many Easter cards. 

I had intended to get them

made and sent earlier in the 

week but was dealing with an 

eye infection that made that

too difficult to do. So, the cards 

will be late but I hope they will

still bring joy to receive in the mail. 

This is a shaker card I made 

using a stencil, inks and a chick 

die from Simon Says Stamp. 

The shaker bits are from Stamp Anniething. 

The die frame and sentiment strip

are from Taylored Expressions. 

 

I’m entering the following challenges:

Interactive Easter Card

 Hello friends! Happy Easter! 

Yesterday I made a shaker card using one

of the Waffle Flower card front shaker panels. 

These are super easy to use. I learned though 

that you don’t need to leave extra space around 

the edges. It seemed as if it might be too tight

but it’s perfect if you don’t use thick 

shaker elements. I left a bit too much room 

and found that some of my shaker bits 

flip on their side and get stuck in the panel. 

A good knock on the edge generally 

Gets it to move away but if I had just 

put it down tighter it would be better. 

Anyhoo… I would definitely use these 

again abs I love how this turned out. 

The shaker bits are from Stamp Anniething. 

The background panel was created with a stencil 

by Taylored Expressions (I also used 

the TE inks). I heat embossed the 

sentiment strip (also from TE). And 

added a layered die sentiment to

the front panel. It’s a lot of fun but

I’ll definitely have to send it as 

a package because it’s thick. 

I put a ton of shaker bits in there!

I’m entering this card in the current 

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge

4/13 - Interactive.

by artist Becky Pearce called...

PANDA-MONIUM!

These delightful panda friends are sure to make anyone smile with their cute antics and adorable accessories!

These sweet little guys are super easy and quick

to color.  I used just one of them on my card today

the new Lucious Lemon ink (LOVE this bright

yellow ink!).  I also used the Ocean Opulence ink

a green fade.  Adding little clusters of stars and a

few of the awesome gems from the Add On bundle

just put the perfect finishing touches to the card.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps April NEW Release Peeks - DAY TWO - Stone Age Friends!

   Welcome back to Day TWO of our April Krafty Peeks!

Are you excited about what you've seen so far!?  

Are you ready for more?

I hope your answer was yes because we've got more fabulous fun for you today!

The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from artist Neda Sadreddin

 and it's called.....

STONE AGE FRIENDS!

This absolutely awesome set features a prehistoric family and their wooly mammoth friend with accessory stamps and fun, ancient sentiments!

I fell in LOVE instantly with this adorable stamp set!

Neda's characters are just so stinkin' fun 

and this one makes me think of the Flintstones. 

My card is a notecard size - something I don't 

do very often, but it's such a fun size.

I used the new Animal Adventure stencil with Rich Rust ink

and the new Lucious Lemon ink over the top of the cardstock

base very lightly (and heavier around the fire).  The sentiment 

is from yesterday's krafty komeback - CAVE KIDS. 

What do you think?! Do you love this new stamp set?

 Check out STONE AGE FRIENDS! in so many awesome creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  You'll also see the new stencils, Add-On bundle and hybrid ink along the way!

It's time for our April Release Peeks to begin 

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today's featured set is a Krafty Komeback set 

designed by Cheryl Grant called.....

CAVE KIDS!

Lulu, Lucas and Lexi are back with adorable prehistoric costumes and a sweet little dino friend!

I loved this stamp set when it was originally

released (still have it in my collection)

and I love this new clear photopolymer

version with the fun new sentiments!

I made a slimline card using three of the

stamps and the new Animal Adventure stencil.

I brushed Designer Denim all over my panel

including the piece underneath and then added

some Lavish Lilac over the top of that in the

circle area to change the color slightly and

add a purple-ish hue. The images are stamped

with Sandy Shores and Totally Taupe hybrid ink

and then colored with copics.

I love how this card turned out and
