Happy Birthday!!

 Everyone has a birthday and I hope that you celebrate it in whatever way you do.  Yesterday I created a card for a friend's business.  She is celebrating 13 years in the crafting industry in Canada!  Happy Birthday to Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.  #kraftinkimmie   Kraftin Kimmie Stamps

 

This adorable hippo image is from "Hip Hippo Ray".   To make it special I made a fancy fold card - this one is like a card in a card.  Coloured up with copic markers and accented with stickles it is bright and glittery.  I also put the fussy cut image on a wobble because who can see the little hippo doing a birthday dance.

Until next time-stay crafty and stay safe

World Cardmaking Day

 Well, now it is October and the summer has literally flown by.  

Today is October 1st and it is also world cardmaking day.  

I am happy to share the card that I made that celebrates Halloween using amazing stamps and products from a Canadian Company, Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.  

I used the stamp sets, "I want Candy", "Little Monsters" and "Monster Sentiments", and coloured with Copic markers.  Inked a background with Kraftin Kimmie Hybrid Inks and then stenciled over the background with the spiderweb stencil and Wicked Black Ink.  

I am quite happy with the finished box card and I hope that the person I send it to will be as well

Til next time  

Happy World Cardmaking Day everyone

July 2022 Summertime Fun

 Hello everyone!!

I trust you are enjoying your summer and are able to do lots of what makes you happy.  Being with my family, gardening and crafting makes me happy.   I enjoy colouring images and making cards.  One of this  month's releases from Kraftin Kimmie made me happy with the cute little puppy images and the stencil, which I used as an embossing folder on my card.  

The card is a fancy fold. Fun and easy to make and adds a little extra.  

Check out this stamp set as well as the other releases,  and all of the other stamps from this amazing Canadian Company

Until next time  Happy crafting
