Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Krafty Peeks Day TWO! My Hero!

Welcome back to Day TWO of our March 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 
Melissa Baker-Nguyen and it's called.....

MY HERO!!

I chose one of the fantastic sentiments from this set and white heat embossed it over a watercoloured paper that was created with purple Pixie Powder for a shimmery backround! I diecut it out and added it to my card along with an image from yesterday's New DRAGON FLIGHT Stamp Set. 


This is an amazing set of sentiments that will match perfectly with the fabulous Dragon Flight stamp set we previewed yesterday!!

I used the New RADICAL RECTANGLES Stencil to trace a frame around my card base with an embossing pen and then heat embossed with gold powder. There are so many ways to use this rectangle stencil!! 

I added chipboard clouds (coloured with Metallic Lustre Paste), Sparkletz sequins and Dream Drops from the New MARCH ADD-ON BUNDLE. This is the perfect kit to add embellishments ready to go that match your new stamps!!

Here's a little Video to check out! 

 Check out MY HERO in so many gorgeous creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  You'll also see the new stencils and hybrid ink along the way!

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

It's time for our March Release Peeks to begin 

Today's featured set is a fearsome set by Sabrina van Vloten called.....

This is an amazing set of dragons and knights ready to set flight and create magical scenes! Of course you're going to find so many ways to use it with the previously released Dream Castle and Royal Family & Sentiments sets!!


I used the New RICH RUST colour to sponge my card base before layering on a stenciled background using the New ROYAL Stencil and Glitter Kiss paste. I used the New RADICAL RECTANGLES Stencil to mask a rectangular scene with our Krafty Scenery 3 and Chubby Clouds Stencils! 


I used the awesome MARCH ADD ON BUNDLE to embellish, including Dream Drops, Twine and Chipboard. I added a pretty sentiment from the Unicorns & Rainbows stamp set - since I think this set truly is magical!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #571 - Glitter!

Good morning and welcome to another fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps ! Are you ready for another fun and krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing? We've got some fabulous ideas for you and can't wait to see what you create! This week, Krafty Girl Melanie is your hostess and her challenge theme for you is: 

GLITTER!

I was recently playing around with my gelli plate to create some backgrounds, and I decided to stamp and heat emboss these beautiful butterflies and the sentiment from the Butterfly Dreams Stamp Set! I'm totally in the mood for spring, so this was the perfect set to use! I pulled out my reinker sprays in Gorgeous Grape and Berry Bold, which I mix in small spray bottles with water and Perfect Pearls, and sprayed them through the Happy Hearts Stencil to create a subtle, glittery heart detail to my background panel.


I stamped more of the sentiments from the set with Granite Grey Ink around the edges of the panel and then added another heat embossed butterfly image using glittery embossing powder. I layered the panel on a scalloped die and then on my cardbase that had strips of double sided tape with fine glitter rubbed on top for a pretty, glittery border! I even added some krafty dots and some clear sequins to finish off the card.

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like.


These must be new creations and you are welcome to use any stamp, however, using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp products will earn you double entries!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps March Skrappy Challenge!

Good morning krafty friends!

It's March 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 month's challenge I decided to make a tag flip book using images from the adorable Love Bugs Stamp Set! These sweet critters are just perfect for spring creations and are back in stock - so grab them quick!! 


I coloured up the sweet ladybug with Copics and popped him up on front of the beautiful flowers in the set on a diecut oval base. A few Krafty Dots from the Fruity Dot pack add another punch of colour.


Inside, the flip book opens to reveal three tags! You could easily add a gift card too! I got the instructions to make this sweet book here. An adhesive magnet set from the dollar store keeps it lightly closed.


I used Krafty Kolours Inks in coordinating colours and the Lots Of Dots Stencil to add detail around the tags. After stamping more of the sweet Love Bugs Stamp Set images on each tag, I used coloured pencils to lightly shade the images in. 


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, April 5th 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!

Check out some more inspiration from the Krafty Team below and be inspired to get krafty!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #570- Something Yummy!

  Good morning and welcome to another

fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge


Are you ready for another fun and krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing?
We've got some fabulous ideas for you 
and can't wait to see what you create!

This week, I'm your hostess and my challenge theme for you is: 

SOMETHING YUMMY!

Hello friends! Today I'm sharing a very yummy project to inspire you in this week's challenge!! I'm using the New Lulu & Friends Stamp Set, along with lots of other 'sweet' supplies from the Shop! I coloured up Lulu with Copic Markers in some pretty colours to match the Simple Stories Sweet Talk collection. I just adore her little tutu and that determined look on her face! 


I decided to play off the waffle ephemera and create my own waffle by using the So Many Squares Stencil along with the New Smokin' Squares Stencil to create a mask for my waffle shape, which I inked with Totally Taupe and Sandy Shores Inks. I grabbed the Splish Splash Stencil to make a fun splat of red jelly, which I stencilled on with Berry Bold Ink and even added a layer of clear 3D Matt Gel to create a little dimension and shine. 


I used the fabulous February Add-On Bundle to add a chipboard rolling pin and the adorable cupcake washi tape to the card as well! I even used the wood stump stamp from Lumberjack & Jill to add a little woodgrain to the inked rolling pin!



I finished off the front of the card with Dazzling and Pastel Krafty Dots and stamped the inside of the card with a sentiment and image from Happiness Is Homemade!



We can't wait to see what delicious projects you come up with! There are so many food and drink images to choose from! And don't forget you on have one more day to take advantage of this sweet Free 'Tutu Sweet' mini stamp. Won't she look adorable paired with Lulu & Friends?!! 💖
