KKS August Krafty Peeks... Day TWO! Storytellers!

  Welcome back to Day TWO of our August Krafty Peeks!

Are you excited about what you've seen so far!?  Are you ready for more?

I hope your answer was yes because we've got more fabulous fun for you today!

The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from 

artist Sabrina van Vloten

 and it's called.....

STORYTELLERS!

This set has amazing and magical friends, sharing their love of reading - with so many fabulous sentiments!! 

I started off by watercolouring the adorable dragon with Tim Holtz Watercolor Pencils.

This was a card I created for our Spring 2023 Retreat. If you were in that event you'll still have access to the printable PDF with complete instructions on how to create this card! 

I used an older Kraftin' Kimmie Study Buddy Stencil with various Krafty Kolour Inks over a text paper background. You might already have this stencil in your collection, but if not there are sooo many amazing stencils in the shop and two more will be released on Saturday! You can see those - Leafy Mandala and Perfect Pies, in yesterday's post! 

I added some tickets and enamel dots and stamped one of the awesome sentiments on the background paper!

 Check out STORYTELLERS! and our new stencils in so many awesome creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  

You'll see more of our August goodies all week, and then everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party on Saturday at 2 pm ET in the Krafty Friends facebook group!  

For now, check out all the fantastic goodness in today's hop!

See you tomorrow!

KKS August Krafty Peeks ... Day ONE! Lost In A Book!

 Who's ready for lots of brand new Krafty goodies?!

It's time for our August Release Peeks to begin 

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today we have an amazing book and tea lover set

designed by Michelle Houghton,

 and it's called.....

LOST IN A BOOK! 

You'll find lots of book images as well as a sweet teapot and cup and several awesome quotes in this set! 

I started out by stenciling one of our beautiful new stencils, Leafy Mandala, with Blue Bay, Designer Denim and Stormy Sky Inks. I love sitting down with my stencils and just creating - and then I have premade backgrounds to use on my cards! 

I then coloured all these amazing images with Copic Markers and even did some paper piecing with some pretty fall paper! I love how you could customize the plant pots, teapot and cups however you like! 

I stamped the Tea For Two sentiment on a banner strip and added it to the top of my card.

I used banner dies to cut 'bookshelves' for my little scene and handcut shapes to create a table for my tea party! I even created a little tablecloth with some leftover background paper, cut into a triangle, and stenciled with yellow ink.

As you hop around the design team's blogs today you'll be able to check out LOST IN A BOOK! in action in combination with our other new 

August Kraftin' Kimmie products!  

We've also got TWO new Krafty Stencils for this month's release to help add some funky fun to your creations!  

They are called....
LEAFY MANDALA

and 

PERFECT PIES

(a 2 piece layering stencil!)

Both designs are perfect for all your cards, scrapbook pages, mixed media and more!

You'll get to see all of our brand new goodies in action over the next few days of the August Krafty Peeks and everything will be released at our LIVE Release Party 

on  Saturday, August 19th at 2 pm noon EST in the Krafty Friends group! 

For now, hop around and check out some amazing creations from the Krafty Team! Our fabulous designers can't wait to share their inspiration with you!

Come on back tomorrow for some more krafty fun and goodness!

I added some stickers from Simple Stories Celebrate collection and we even made a cute paper clip embellishment together too!

Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps March Hop & Shop!

Woohoo!!! 

Today we are celebrating all the new fabulous goodies in our March Release that are NOW available in the

 Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop!

and we're excited to share it ALL with you in a fabulous krafty HOP!

Last month was my husband's birthday, so I made this card for him!! I cut a large sentiment with my Cricut for my card front and then added images from the BIRTHDAY BASH Stamp Set. I love how many accessory stamps are included with this set!! You can mix and match these with lots of other sets for a fun party theme. 

I coloured the images up with Copics, and since they are nice and small it is a very quick colouring project. Then, I popped them up in various places around the card. I added metallic blue cardstock behind the diecut opening for a shiny effect.

Inside, I stamped one of the amazing sentiments from BIRTHDAY BASH SENTIMENTS with Incredible Indigo Ink and then stamped the cake with Bubbly Blue Ink and used the NUMBER IT stencil to add his age!

By the way, he loved his card, (he keeps them all!) and since I'm making an effort to really use my Cricut, I also redid the vinyl on his mug - he really is Mr. Fix It! 

And made him a 'fun guy' t-shirt! I love making personalized and handmade gifts, and love using my supplies!! 

So let's check everything out as we hop around the Krafty Design Team's blogs today!  Grab a drink, sit back and relax while we take you on a krafty tour!

First up we have our friend Lulu back in a Krafty Komeback, and she's full of birthday surprises...

Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps March Krafty Peeks Day THREE! Birthday Bash Sentiments!

 Today is our final day of Krafty Peeks for the March Release 

 at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

We are so excited to share a fabulous sentiment set 

by artist Sabrina van Vloten

 called...

BIRTHDAY BASH SENTIMENTS!

This set is filled with so many wonderful sentiments to help you and your friends celebrate their special days!

I love how many awesome sentiments are included in the Birthday Bash Sentiments set!! You can easily combine them with any of this month's new stencils or stamp sets to mix and match your celebration projects!

I had a background created with Flirty Flamingo and Ruby Red Krafty Kolour Reinkers already, so I stenciled overtop with the Number It Stencil and Incredible Indigo Ink. I added some white gel pen highlights for a cool balloon effect! Seriously love this stencil! I then added some sparkly splatters with Dylusions Shimmer Mists, because that says PARTY to me!

I added some fun birthday ephemera elements and stamped one of the awesome sentiments from Birthday Bash Sentiments below another new set we peeked Moday - Birthday Lulu, who is coloured with Distress Watercolor Pencils.

Inside, I stamped another fabulous sentiment from the set in an ombre effect using Flirty Flamingo and Incredible Indigo Ink and added a couple more stickers... because hey, the inside should be pretty too!

 

     Check out BIRTHDAY BASH SENTIMENTS! in so many amazing creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  You'll also see the beautiful new stencils, NUMBER IT and CELEBRATE WITH CAKE (a layering stencil!!) along the way!

Our sweet animal friends are back and ready to celebrate with all their amazing accessories!! Be sure to look up these cuties featured in other sets by Sabrina!

If you want to learn more about Krafty Klub you can read this post from the March Preorder HERE and watch for April news coming out in our Krafty Friends Facebook Group and Preorder Website Section before the end of the month!

I absolutely love layering stencils and I had fun using lots of different Krafty Kolours Inks to create a totally delicious background - Totally Taupe, Flirty Flamingo, Tempting Tangerine, Luscious Lemon (on sale this month), Ocean Opulence, and Sandy Shores!

This alone would make a fantastic card - just add a sentiment!

But, of course, I wanted to add these adorable characters to my card!! I coloured up the cute bear and mouse with Distress Watercolor Pencils and added on the yummy cake and cupcakes!

I stamped the Let's Celebrate sentiment - which of course could be for any celebration! Because I say any excuse to have cake is a good one! I added a balloon sticker, some sparkly dots and white gel pen and sparkly pen details!
