Sending you SNOW much love!

Hello crafty friends.  I'm back with another

card to share with you.  It's a one layer and CAS 

 card (gasp!) - and I love how it turned out.

The finished size is 3 1/2" x 5".   

I used a new stamp set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

called Snowflake Kisses.  I  showed you another 

peek of this set early today on this blog post 

if you missed seeing it. The snowflakes are stamped

in three different pinks: Berry Bliss, Pink Pizzazz and

Pretty in Pink (all from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps). 

The enamel dots are also brand new and will 

be available Saturday afternoon - Festive Dots. 

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Oct 2019 NEW Release Sneak Peek -DAY ONE

Hello! Welcome to my blog!

I'm happy to be sharing a card I made today

for DAY ONE sneak peeks of the October 

NEW RELEASE at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

Winter is coming (are you a GOT fan)? and that

means snow - lots and lots of snow - in Montana.

I'm a total sucker for snowflakes even though 

I don't like to be out in the cold.  I love to watch the

snow drifting down while I'm snuggled up warm & cozy.

This new stamp set called SNOWFLAKE KISSES 

by artist Melissa Baker-Nguyen is simply stunning!

To make this card, I first created the background

with Pretty in Pink and Bubbly Blue inks sponged

through the NEW Perfect Plaid Stencil.  Then I 

randomly stamped a variety of the snowflakes all 

over it using the NEW Stormy Sky ink (this is 

going to be one of my all time favorite blue inks!), 

and added one of the sentiments from the set.  

I absolutely LOVE how it turned out.  Hope you do too!

Thanks for visiting me today.  I'll be back with another
sneak peek on Saturday.

I hope you will join us on Saturday for the LIVE
ONLINE RELEASE Party with Kimmie!
The fun starts at 2pm EST.

 Hugs! D

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenges #410 "SNOW"

Hello crafty friends! 

Holy smokes it's December 2nd!  

Do you have your Christmas crafting and shopping done  yet?

We have our decorations up and I've done a little on-line
shopping but still need to do more and will be making
several small gifts for friends and co-workers and doing the 

traditional holiday baking with my sweet daughter. 

I just honestly can't believe how fast time is going by!

Kind of sad really - but so looking 

forward to my family time on Christmas Eve.

Oops I digress... the real reason for this post

is because it's time for another weekly challenge 

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE CHALLENGES!

The theme this week is SNOW.  

You can make any type of project to enter but

please remember it must be a new creation and 

follow the theme with some snow on it.  

My card today features MERRY AND BRIGHT BIRDIES

with a white background and snowflakes.  

Isn't this duo all snuggled up together in the boughs adorable?

on your Christmas creation.

I chose the snowflakes option and made a

fairly Clean and Simple card using

I couldn't resist adding a bright red nose to the 

reindeer! I left the sentiment off the front because

I just really liked the simplicity of it just as it was.
