September Skrappy Challenge - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

   Good morning krafty friends!

It's September and that means it's time for a brand new
SKRAPPY CHALLENGE

with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

 The theme of course is ANYTHING BUT A CARD!

For this challenge you can make anything that strikes your fancy....except a card!
So design a new scrapbook page, bookmark, tag, altered item, planner page, art journal, ATC cards...whatever you like!

Just make sure to include some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products and make sure it's a new creation!  As soon as we have at least five people playing along, we'll be giving away a $10 gift voucher to the krafty shop as the monthly prize!  

You have until Monday, October 4th to enter, and you can submit as many new creations as you like for more chances to WIN!  Also be sure to share your designs on the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps' Krafty Friends facebook page because we love to see your stuff!

Today I have a fun shaker tag to share with you! 

I used one of the super cute images from 

SQUIRREL FUN and papers and the Cosmic

Shimmer Opal Blaze (sunset orange) from the August Add On bundle. 

To make this tag I first used some Lunar Paste (in traffic cone orange) through the Falling Leaves Stencil on top of one of the papers from the bundle.  Then I sprayed some Distress Oxide paints over the top of it. The outer frame of this tag is chipboard but you can't tell that because I used the gorgeous Cosmic Shimmer over the top of it. The sentiment is stamped with the new Cool Canteloupe hybrid ink (such a gorgeous fall orange!).  

Here's a close up 

If you haven't grabbed the August Add On bundle (still available in limited quantities) you are missing out on some seriously awesome fall

products that work so well with the recent fall release (and previous ones too) at KKS. 

The idea behind the Add On bundles is that you can immediately start crafting and creating when you open the package. There are FIVE full size products in this bundle!! Everything is coordinated so wonderfully and you don't have to dig for things or think too hard about what goes with what.  

Anyway... as I said, it's a great value and awesome bunch of goodies so grab it while you can cause when it's gone, it's gone! 

 

Thanks for visiting me today!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps August NEW Release and ANYTHING GOES Challenge

Today is our final day of Krafty Peeks for 

the August Release at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

We are so excited to share a fantastic set 

by artist Neda Sadreddin called HAY YOU!

This fabulous Fall set is perfect for all your 

Autumn projects and with lots of fun 

sentiments you'll be using this set 

to send lots of hello's.

Here's my card to share with you today. 

All the images were watercolored with 

Karin Brushmarkers. I used the new 

COOL CANTELOUPE ink with the new 

FALLING LEAVES stencil on the main panel

(and the back panel too).  Take a look: 

I've been wanting to make a clear front card

(not at all sure that's the correct term) 

forever.  The front panel of the card

is a piece of clear acetate.  I adhered

one of the images and a few of those 

darlings floating leaves to that panel.

then the "inside" - which you can see

through the acetate - is the main card base.

I totally forgot to take a photo of the

front cover lifted up before I sent this

off in an envelope to Kimmie. 

Because I didn't want to write across the 

whole image I decorated the back panel of 

the card and left it open for the message. 

This leaf stencil is going to be 

one of my go to fall favorites for sure!

What do you think? Do you love this set?

As you hop around the design team's blogs today you'll be able to check out HAY YOU! in action in combination with a lot of our other new August Kraftin' Kimmie products!  

Of course today is also challenge day and as always during release week, it's Anything Goes!  So create a card, scrapbook page, altered item, planner page....with some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products for your chance to WIN the monthly prize!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #502 - Autumn Colors

Hello crafty followers and friends.

Pardon my excitement but... IT'S THE WEEKEND!!!

We are going to watch some college football

and will get to see both my kiddos.  

Today is the start of Challenge #502 at 

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES

and the theme this week is "AUTUMN COLORS".

Here in Montana we seem to have skipped right by

the beautiful season of Autumn.  The leaves had

barely started to change colors and two nasty snow

storms plunked upon us.  I don't mind winter but 

I LOVE Autumn and am really sad to have missed
all the beautiful colors and cool mornings with
warmer days and sunshine - especially the colors. 

My DT card for this challenge features a gorgeous
gourd  that symbolizes autumn for me
(I LOVE pumpkins) - take a peek

The background is created with the Beautiful Burlap stencil

and Yummy Yellow, Totally Taupe and Pumpkin Patch inks.

Then I added some stems, leaves and a pumpkin from 

Grateful Pumpkins (on SALE this weekend) and a 

sentiment from Pumpkin Kisses right over the top of

the stenciled background.  Hope you like it!

Thanks so much for visiting me today. Hugs!
