Good morning krafty friends! It's AUGUST 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 I created some fun planner charms using Shrink Plastic and stamps from the Trendy Tees and Trendy Tees Icons Stamp Sets. This was such a fun project!! I first stamped on the white shrink plastic sheet with Totally Taupe Krafty Kolours Ink and then carefully coloured in the images with Copic Markers.
I added some sponging around the edges with Sparkling Sapphire and Raspberry Rose Inks and used Yummy Yellow to sponge on the stars from the Pattern Parade Stencil before stamping with the star from the Trendy Tees Icons set. The colours all become bolder and brighter after shrinking! I diecut the tag and oval using dies from my stash and added a couple hole punches. I fussy cut the mamma out, and I simply used my heat gun to shrink all the charms! As long as you stick the tip of your heat resistant (I used Tim Holtz) scissors into the little hole you can prevent the charms from flying across the table 😉 and they shrink up very quickly. I added some jump rings and attached them to a lobster clasp with a fun little tassel! My girls have been making shrink plastic earrings all week - I may have to try these next!
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!
