Well, welcome back for another supah fun challenge here at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!! We are LOVING your submissions and you are rockin' these challenges!! It's awesome to see so many of you creating with KKS!!! Keep them coming! 

This week our hostess is JENNY!! And her challenge is Spooky Sweet!! So create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp that features Halloween or something spooky!! Have some krafty fun and join us this week because we'd LOVE to see your KKS designs. We hope you can play along for your chance to WIN some Kraftin' Kimmie rubbah!!! 

I had bought some of these Wilton Gable boxes, and thought they would come in handy for some little crafty creation. So here we have it, a Halloween treat bag. I used one of those $1.50 wooden stamps from  Micheals to stamp the bats on top. Then I added a Halloween Trinket and also an image from the Too Cute to Spook 2 set. Some strips of paper and a bit of ribbon, and you've got a sweet treat for a lucky trick or treater. :)

KKS Release Day! Woot Woot!!

Well welcome back!! It’s Krafty RELEASE Day at KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS!! And we’re celebrating with a KRAFTY HOP!!

Over the last few days in our Krafty Peeks, we have shared lots of AMAZING new stamps from all our artists! We’ve got something for everyone!! We've got TWO sweet new summertime sets from Nicole.......GOOD VIBRATIONS and SUMMER LOVIN’!! We’ve got two sweet new sets from Cheryl……SHELL ME A STORY and TOTALLY TUBULAR!! And of course we have an amazing new set of SIX awesome stamps in our BEACHY GIRLS collection and they are simply A-mazing!! 

I want to be this girl relaxing in the sun with a cocktail. Sounds heavenly.  Unfortunately Mother Nature has denied us the sunny forecast for today and it was mostly overcast all day :( I think tomorrow it is to be nicer, fingers crossed. Anyway, this is Margarita. I added some flowers from my stash that I thought looked kinda tropical and added a pearl brad to the centres. The flourish is from a Cheery Lynn die, The sunglasses were a little dimensional sticker from Jolee's Boutique.

These two cards are made with the Good Vibrations set. I love this sentiment. My girls actually got me one of those word plaques for Christmas that said, "I love you more than Cupcakes." Awww. I loved it!!

You will get to see most of the new images today as you sit back and enjoy our MAY Krafty Hop!

KKS Challenge #154 Food/Drink

This week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge is to use food or drink in your card. So I decided to use Agnes because my girlfriends birthday is coming up and she's a chef. So it's perfect!!

I was inspired by this cute chipboard sticker that I had picked up ages ago in the $1.50 bins at Michael's so I searched through my papers trying to find some that would match, and I found some in my odds and ends scrap pile. Added a prima flower with a Spare parts brad, some $ store pearls and some rick rack ribbon. I also added the drippy border using my MS punch.

Check out what the rest of the Krafty gals came up with as well as what's on the Frugal Friday sale.

Have a great weekend!!
