Inspirational Wednesday - Autumn Pumpkins!

 

 Good morning Krafty Friends!!  

Welcome to another Inspirational Wednesday,

the day of the week that we provide you with a little extra

inspiration for your krafty projects!! 

This week the featured stamp set is...Autumn Pumpkins!

For this card, I stamped the image with Kraftin Kimmie Wicked Black ink and coloured it up with my Copic markers.  After fussy cutting, I matted the image with ovals, stamped the sentiment and then splattered a little gold glitter ink over top.  The kraft cardstock was dry embossed and the card was assembled after adding a couple of orange glitter gems.  

Make sure you grab this featured stamp set for 40% off in the shop!! You need this set for your fall and Thanksgiving creations.  

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone!

Saturday Challenge #671 - Tags and/or Fall!

    Good morning and welcome to our new 

Monthly Saturday Challenge

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Are you ready for another krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing?

We've got some fabulous ideas for you

We also have a new Ink Of The Month, which will be on sale all month long!! This month features the gorgeous Mostly Melon Ink Pad, Ink Cube and Reinker! Grab it now to add to your collection.

 I chose to use all of the prompts for my challenge card.  

I created a card using 2 tags that I welded together on my Cricut.  The card was cut from Kraft paper and the mat was cut from Ivory cardstock.  I used the 'Falling Leaves' stencil with 'Mostly Melon' ink for the background and then dry embossed the leaves.  

The pumpkin stamp and sentiment is from 'Autumn Leaves' . These were stamped in 'Marvelous Mocha' ink and coloured with Copics.  Some gold splatter, gold gems and rustic twine and this finishes off the challenge card.  

Every month we post a brand new challenge with a choice of themes to choose from, and a mid month inspiration post with even more creative ideas! You are welcome to enter as many times as you like.

Mid Month April Saturday Challenge #667 - Stitching, Stencils and/or Orange!

   Good morning and welcome to our  

Monthly Saturday Challenge Mid Inspiration Post

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

We are back today with an inspirational post showcasing more ideas to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing!

We can't wait to see what you create!

This month the challenge themes for you are: 

STITCHING, STENCILS AND/OR ORANGE!

You can choose any or all - whatever inspires you!

Our Ink Of The Month, which will be on sale all month long, just happens to be a lovely shade of orange!! This month features the gorgeous Cool Canteloupe Ink Pad, Cube and Reinker! Grab it now to add to your collection.

I chose all 3 of the challenges for my card. 

I used the stamp set "Hey You" and the Falling Leaves stencil.  I used gilding flakes with the stencil and coloured the images using Prismacolor Pencils which is a change for me, but I am super happy with the way that they turned out.  I needed a piece of orange cardstock for a mat so I ink blended some Cool Cantaloupe ink on my white mat and I have the perfect colour to highlight the card. The dies for the mats are stitched too.

   Every month we post a brand new challenge with three themes to choose from, and a mid month inspiration post with even more creative ideas! You are welcome to enter as many times as you like.

This month's challenge will remain open until May 5th.

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

A Happy Fall Birthday!

 I made a special fall birthday card using, Autumn Pumpkins, from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps, *NEW Autumn Pumpkins! – Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.  

Using a cozy Fall paper,( Four Seasons—Autumn Paper Packet (X8036B) | Close To My Heart ) the  image was coloured with copics, and decorated with a few metal style embellishments for a perfect fall card that will easily fit in the mailbox.

A simple, yet beautiful fall birthday card for someone special.

Stay crafty, there is more to follow

HAPPY THANKSGIVING - HAPPY FALL

 Our family has certainly had it's share of sorrow this year, but this is a time to reflect on the goodness in our lives.

I created this card using the Falling Leaves stencil and foiling technique with a bronze/copper foil.  The images from Autumn Pumpkins were stamped onto Neenah Kraft paper and coloured with pencils.  Since the card was made with only cardstock, I decorated the envelope with another of the stamp set images and coloured it with simple markers.  

I hope that you like it.

I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving and a Happy Fall.

Keep on crafting.
