Are you ready for Christmas?

I'm a bit behind myself - but that's nothing new LOL.

It's time for another weekly theme challenge

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS 

and it's the last one for 2020! 

For Challenge #561 our hostess is Krafty Gal Karla

and she wants us to make a BIRTHDAY CARD. 

My card features the super fun PARTY PIGGIES stamp set

 and the Confetti stencil (w/ Morning Marigold ink).

How could your face resist smiling upon 

receiving a sparkly card with these two on it? 

We hope you'll join the challenge and post your

entries in either the main blog link or in the 

Krafty Friends Facebook Group.  

The monthly prize is a $25 voucher tot the KKS Shop!

as each entry is a NEW creation.  And if you use 

a Kraftin' Kimmie product your entry counts as two! 

Come show us what you got! We LOVE to be 

inspired by you too! 

 

Our  Krafty DT will take a bit of a break to enjoy 

the rest of the holiday season and

come back refreshed with lots of great new

inspiration in 2021 (wow does that seem odd to type). 

When I tell you that the January products are going

to start your year off with a big smile on your face

I am not exaggerating!! Whoo hoo! 

Good thing I'm good at keeping secrets - winky face!

 

Don't miss our last day of the 

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS for specials,

inspiration and a change to WIN!

I have a separate post with my card for the 

12 Days celebration.  I used a spring stamp

12 Krafty Days of Christmas - Day SEVEN - Trendy T's and Trendy T's Icons

Hello - so happy you've stopped by to visit me today.

It's DAY SEVEN of the 12 KRAFTY DAYS OF CHRISTMAS

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

 

I get the pleasure today of sharing two of the fabulous

clear photopolymer stamp sets from July 2020 - 

TRENDY TEES and TRENDY TEES ICONS!

Here's the first card 

Isn't it fun how the icons can be used to customize the 

shirts and personalities of the adults and kiddos?  

The icons can be used in really fun way to make 

interesting backgrounds too (or tags)!

I also used one of the panels from the Pattern Parade stencil

for the main background (with Granite Grey ink). 

My second card uses the same stamp sets & images but this time

it's a Christmas version (the little snowglobe is from

Shake it Up! - Polar Bears. The snowflakes are from the icon set).

Once again I used one of the panels from the Pattern Parade stencil

and the Fresh Fields hybrid ink (also introduced in July) 

with Crisp Crimson hybrid ink (the December ink of the month). 

I love these two colors together for traditional Christmas. 

The main sentiment is from Holiday Wishes stamp set. 

and although the back isn't as exciting as the front

I wanted to show you how I finished it with the 

Handmade Sentiments stamp set (released in Nov 2020).

Each and every day  during the 12 Days Event, you can 

comment on our blog posts for a chance to WIN some

prizes - including some krafty $ to spend in the KKS Store!

You can also enter your own creation using one or more 

of the July 2020 products on the main blog for additional

chances at prizes.  So fun!  

 

Thanks for stopping in to visit me!  

Have a great krafty day!

Hello friends. It's time for another weekly theme challenge at

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Challenge #560 is to use Sepia OR Black & White only. 

My card features the super cute Perky Penguins stamp

set w/a sentiment from Solid Holiday. 

That's not patterned paper in the background - I used 

three of the snowflakes from the stamp set to make it. 

I like how it turned out - hope you do too!

Maybe you'll decide to join us this week and share

your own fab creation using Sepia or Black &White.

You can enter as many times as you like - but remember

December Skrappy Challenge

Good morning krafty friends! 

It's December 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, January 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! 

Do you love to journal?  Maybe you don't love to journal

but you love lists?  I love lists - there's just something so

satisfying about making a list for me. It seems to put

structure around my world if I have something concrete

to look at - especially if I can check things off as "DONE".

Kimmie recently started a journaling group and I've 

really been enjoying taking my list making to the next 

level of memory keeping and some journaling.  

Here's a page I made last night using the super cute

(and brand new) SAVE MY PLACE stamp set.

If this sounds like something that you would like to learn 

more about - here's the link to the 

Krafty Journaling Fun facebook group. 

But for now there's some more inspiration from 

the Krafty Team below. Click the links to be inspired!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #559 - Red & Green OR Purple & Blue

Welcome to my blog on this last Saturday of November 2020.

Does that sound as odd to read as it did for me to type?!

Saturday always brings a new weekly theme challenge

at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!

Our hostess this week is krafty gal Allison and she has

chosen a fun color combo theme for you. 

Challenge #559 is to Use EITHER 

Red & Green OR Purple and Blue. 

For my DT card I went with the Red & Green combo

and used the super CUUUUTE BELIEVE IN YOUR ELF

clear stamp set (colored with copic markers).

I so adore the look on this mischievous elf's face.

And the reindeer seems to be thinking "oh boy we're 

in for some ride" LOL.  This image is as fun to color

as it is to use on Christmas cards!  The photo 

doesn't show it very well but there's red foil 

cardstock around the base and on the word die. 

If you have been doing some Black Friday shopping 

you can also take advantage of a super sized 

FRUGAL FRIDAY in the KKS Shop.  LOTS 

and LOTS of great bargains for  you.  

Here's a link to help you get there - you're welcome! 

We sure do hope that you'll join us this week and 

enter your own Red & Green OR Purple & Blue

creation.  Maybe you'll make one of each!  You

can enter as many times as you wish - just link up a NEW 

creation each time.  There's a monthly prize of $25

for those who play along.  You might be the lucky

one who has some Krafty $$ to spend on yourself! 

So off I go for now! Hope you are having a great

weekend and enjoying some peace and good health

going into the Christmas month. 

Thanks for stopping by! Cyber hugs! D

Blog Hop Celebration for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps November release

Hello! How did it get to be Sunday already? The weekends go by so fast!

For me Sundays are special for having that extra cup of coffee,

snuggling with my pups and catching up on crafty news. 

If that sounds like something you would enjoy or can relate to,

then you'll be especially happy to hear that today at 

KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS we have a 

special blog hop to celebrate the fabulous

November 2020 new release goodies.  

So, grab that cup of your favorite beverage, 

snuggle up and get comfy and start hopping along 

with us to see some awesome inspiration with the new 

stamps, stencils, inks and dots!!! 

ALL the new goodies are in the shop now!

There's even a GIMME KIMMIE kit  at a special price

for those of you who loved and want it all 

(but only while supplies last!).  

So after you enjoy hopping you can go shopping!

Whoo Hoo!!! 

Before I show you my creation let's review ...

Day One we brought you SAVE MY PLACE. 

This is a must have for those who have a love of reading! 

Day Two we introduced HANDMADE SENTIMENTS

This set is so versatile.  Our krafty DT showed

you lots of fun ways to use it! 

The final new stamp set is called PLANNER DOODLES.

This one is sure to make your planning even MORE fun!

And it gets even better with the new stencils 

STUDY BUDDY and SPLISH SPLASH

The new hybrid ink SOFT SAGE is gorgeous

and the new DREAMY DOTS really are dreamy!

I'm one of those people who LOVES the feel and smell

of a real book in my hands.  So I made a couple 

bookmarks with SAVE MY PLACE 

I used a couple of the Dreamy Dots on this one

How could you not smile when opening your book

and finding these cute critters. Is a worm a critter?

Asking for a friend.  LOL.  

Now hop on down to the links below and you will 

find lots of amazing inspiration from the krafty DT. 

Enjoy the hop and enjoy what's left of your weekend.
