Time for a Spooky Krafty Komeback - and a Challenge!

Hello all! What an exciting day it is at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!
Today we are bringing back a super cute Halloween stamp set
by artist Cheryl Grant that was first introduced in 2013 and has
not been available for several years.  I was one of the lucky ones
to have purchased this in the original rubber form but now
it's available in the awesome clear photopolymer stamp version! 

Not only is this stamp set back in the shop there is also a 
special promotion going on this weekend called
MYSTERY MADNESS.  Everyone who participates in this 
will WIN A PRIZE! There are lots of good ones to win. 
One lucky winner will win their entire order for FREE.
To participate you must first purchase the  
YOU'RE A SCREAM stamp set (separately
or as part of an order - such as your FRUGAL FRIDAY purchase).  
Once you've placed your order 
head on over to the KKS Krafty Friends Facebook Group
to find this graphic and claim a number.  Everyone who has 
a number will be a WINNER.  But be quick because
there are only 30 spots available!!!
Remember everyone with a number is a winner.  
  

Are you ready to see it???  It's called YOU'RE A SCREAM! 
I cannot express how very happy I am that this set is back!

I made two cards to share with you today.  Here's the first
using Lucas the Mummy and the new Gorgeous Gauze stencil
(and some of the new Halloween dots).  I colored him with 
prisma color pencils on kraft paper.  Inks used are the
NEW Tempting Tangerine and Purple Pansy hybrid inks 

My second card features Lexi the Spider.
That big ol' purple spider web around her is 
made with foil and the Creepy Cobweb stencil.
This is my first attempt at using foil with the 
Duo Transfer gel (no heat required).  I learned a couple
things in the process but am happy with how it turned out. 
I also used the new Halloween dots and Tempting Tangerine ink.

We've put together a fun krafty hop for you 
featuring this Komeback set and  promotion. 
There's also a new challenge this week and the 
theme is ANYTHING GOES!  Playing along in 
our challenges gives you a chance at the monthly
$25 gift voucher to spend in the KKS Shop! 
Come play along and show us how you're using 
your KKS goodies!  We love to be inspired by you too!
Thanks for stopping in to visit! Enjoy the rest of the 
inspiration from the krafty krew below! Hugs! D

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #545 - PURPLE!

Happy happy weekend! I hope it's a good one for you.
It's time for another weekly theme challenge at
KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Use a lot or a little - just make sure we can 
see some of the color purple on your creation. 


I LOVE the color purple but for some reason 
it's not the first color I reach for.  
As I started thinking of ideas all of a 
sudden lots and lots of them flooded my brain.
So....I might be using purple more often!

Have you seen the NEW Gorgeous Gauze stencil?
I am a little bit obsessed with this stencil and used
it for the background on my card.
That lovely gal is from the stamp sets Trendy Tees
and Trendy Tees Icons ("BFF"). 
This card is going to my BFF named Karen
(who by the way loves Purple).
The Purple Petunia KKS hybrid ink worked 
perfectly for the tone on tone look. 
 I added some of my favorite embellishments -
the Krafty Dots.  I'd love to tell you which ones
I used but I have so many of them and I lost track
of labeling them (oops).  But...you can find 
lots of of them in the KKS Shop while you are
shopping the Frugal Friday Specials - wink wink!

Please come play along with our  PURPLE
challenge this week.  We love to see what you make with 
the KKS goodies you purchase. And don't forget
that your creations often inspire us too!! 
Every month Kimmie selects a random winner 
from all the weekly challenges (a $25 gift code to use
in the KKS Shop).  If you wanna win you gotta play! 

Thanks for stopping in to visit! Hugs! D

Thanks for popping in to visit me today!  Hope your weekend is going great!
This is the final day of our sneak peek reveals of the August NEW RELEASE
for KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Have you enjoyed the peeks so far?  Do you have a favorite stamp set or stencil?  
What about those beautiful colored HALLOWEEN Dots or the awesome new 
TEMPTING TANGERINE  hybrid ink?  It's all so awesome for Fall creations!

Today is the last day of the peeks and ALL the new goodies will be
available in the KKS Shop shortly after the LIVE Release Party. 

We're rounding out the peeks with another Halloween stamp set designed
by Sabrina van Vloten.  It's called OWL-CHEMY! 
I think you're gonna LOVE this awesome set.  Take a look

In addition to four awesome owl images there are LOTS of fun 
accessory stamps in this set too.   I used a few on them on my 
card to create a little magical scene. 

My design is based off the August sketch

Sketches are a favorite way of mine to jump start my creativity.
It might be helpful to you too for this week's 
ANYTHING GOES challenge (as it always is during release week).
We love when you play along with our challenges - and
