March Krafty Peeks... Day ONE! Stu-pand-ous!

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

It's time for our March Release Peeks to begin 

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today we have a beary adorable set for you,

designed by Neda Sadreddin,

 and it's called.....

Stu-pand-ous!

These cute red pandas are ready to make your creations panda-stic! The awesome accessory stamps are perfect to create amazing scenes!

For those that know me, Pandas are my weak spot.  I just adore these animals and these red pandas from Neda are no exception.

I made a step card to showcase the little pandas and used the accessory stamps to create a scene for the pandas as well.  

Using the Wonderful Wildlife stencil, I dry embossed a piece of green cardstock and die cut it for my card.  It just adds the correct dimension without overwhelming the card with design. 

As you hop around the design team's blogs today you'll be able to check out Stu-pand-ous in action in combination with our other new 

March 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....
Swirling Stars!

and 

Wonderful Wildlife!

They're 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 March Krafty Peeks and everything will be released at our LIVE Release Party 

on  Saturday, March 16th at 3 pm 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!

November Skrappy Challenge!

   Good morning krafty friends! 

It's November, 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!

I used the stamp set "Gingerbread Kisses" and embossed the house in white on some kraft paper.  Using a tag style die to cut the image out I also cut 2 other tags from mulberry paper that were in my stash.  I used my pencils to colour the image and then made a rustic bow/knot with some of the mulberry paper.  I added the tag and a little snowflake embellishment to the kraft bag.  This is ready to go and wrap up a seasonal treat for a neighbor.  

Here are some Skrappy projects from our Design Team to inspire you! 

Just make sure to include some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products and make sure it's a new creation!

October Krafty Peeks... Day THREE! Season's Tweetings!

Season's Tweetings!

These sweet bird friends are ready to help spread holiday cheer! 

I chose the owl image from this set to make my mini slimline card.  The background was stamped with the sentiment and then embossed and splattered with gold shimmer.  A die cut of a musical line was added to the front of the car and the Copic coloured owl was added with foam tape.  Adding a black mat frames the image and nicely blends in the music die cut.

Inspirational Wednesday! Believe In Your-ELF!

   Hello Krafty Friends!

It's INSPIRATIONAL WEDNESDAY,

the day we provide you with a bit of extra krafty inspiration

to help you get creative with your krafty stamps!

Hi everyone!  This week we are featuring the fabulous Believe In Your ELF stamp set, which you'll find on sale at 40% off all week!

I adore this cute little elf.  He looks like he is trying to get all of the lights up and may not be doing so well doing it!   Using somewhat traditional colours, I  coloured this little guy with my copics, the light strand and lights are coloured with glitter gel pen and cut him out with a fancy circle die.  The sentiment is from the same set.  I used  Kraftin Kimmie "Fresh Fields" ink to ink blend the edges of my papers. It was finished off with a cotton ribbon bow and foam tape for added dimension. This card is now ready for giving.  

 

Make sure you head to the shop and add Believe In Your ELF to your cart while it's 40% off!!
