I'm so happy with the way my Mary Poppins card turned out. My style is usually very girly, cutesie,and bright colours. Whereas this is more elegant and almost a bit of a vintage feel. Yes, maybe?
Anyway I usually pick my papers out first but this time I coloured  and then just picked out odds and ends from my scraps that I thought would work.. I think most of the papers are from a DCW  slab, but I'm really not sure the names.
I've had these Cuttlebug corner dies that I never use that I thought would be a nice touchand the lace edge I made with  my Martha Stewart border punch. Added some flowers and some black ribbon and voila.

Now let's get hoppin' and shoppin'!!

I have lots to share with you today, starting with one of my favs of this release, Computer nerd. The papers were from the DCWV Generation Tech Stack that I used a lot for this release. I loved the drop down screen and the computer in the background. It was a perfect fit for this Computer Nerd. 

Next we have Lab Geek, and with this sentiment "We've got chemistry" I thought I'd like to use some of my new Valentines papers I got from our Krafty Christmas get together last weekend. These are from Doodlebug Designs, Lovebirds. I Love all the shades of pink!
I've never used washi tape before so this was a first for me. I added some flowers that I got from the $ store and a few Heart shaped pearls.

Last but not least, these awesome Handmade Trinkets that will definitely see a lot of ink in there future. They have so much versatility. I've stamped this one just on the back of an envelope. But you could add them as a tag, gift bags, gift boxes, the backs of cards or as a card itself. Endless possibilities. 

Day 3 of KKS Sneak Peaks

Today at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps we are sharing a new set by the totally talented Emilie Goulet!!! We've got something super cute and so unique for you!! Perfect for the little kidlets in your life....and maybe some old fossils too!!! It's CUTE-A-SAURUS!! Emilie has created a fun set of DINOSAUR images for your cards and scrapbook pages!

Ain't this a cute lil guy, and he could be used for many occasions.  The sentiments that come with this set are fun and witty especially this one.
I found this paper in my stash of misc. stuff, I think it's from a DCWV slab. I coloured the dinosaur in using my copics and framed him with the loopy scalloped spellbinders added a few flowers that I found from the $ store. The leaves I made myself using my paper crimper and cutting them into the shapes I wanted.

Below you will find a list of all the Krafty Girls who are sharing PEEKS with you today!! And as you're hoppin' around, be sure to leave a comment at each stop because someone will win a package of these fun stamps!!

Day two of KKS sneak peaks

Welcome back for day two of Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps sneak peaks. Today were showing you what's new with Lulu. Summer's around are house are busy busy with birthdays. So these stamps are perfect for cards and layouts. So I decided to do a layout, but no pics printed off just yet. But I'll definitely be filling in the spots with pics from my youngest daughter's party that we just had last weekend.

So here we go, Birthday Lulu :)

Lots of pics to see. First one of the of the double page spread. A little tricky to get a good pic, that's why I took so many. lol

I had bought this slab a long time ago from Walmart because I loved all the shades and patterns in it. First time using in a layout, and it's perfect for a Birthday layout.

I also incorporated some of the newest Birthday Trinkets in the layout.
And here's some pics of them all close up.

Again to see more sneak peaks of Lulu just head on over to the KKS challenge blog to see what some of the other Krafty gals created, and be sure to leave them some love...you may be a lucky winner of these newest Lulu's.

KKS Challenge #134 Summer Fun

Hi there and welcome to this weeks Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge, Summer Fun and after the heat wave that we've had this past week... staying inside to craft was the perfect way to stay cool. ;)

I coloured up two Lulu stamps, from the set Lulu on the move.  One she's playing with her hoola hoop and the other she's going for a bicycle ride. Two activities my girls love to do.

I also add a sentiment from the Everyday Trinkets You are Awesome my friend. Framed by a deckled spellbinder, perfect for creating a "sun" for Lulu.

To see what the rest of the Krafty gals created head on over to the KKS Challenge Blog.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and don't forget that this week's Frugal Friday sales are also on :)

Day One of KKS Sneak Peaks...

Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps sneak peaks do not disappoint!! You'll love em!!

Lulu is back and I think she's sweeter then ever.  These images are obviously perfect for cards for the lil ones in our lives, but they also work great for scrapbooking as well.

I've scrapbooked many pages of my girls painting and had one layout that I thought Lulu would look perfect on...and there was a little space to add her. A perfect finishing touch.
This is my youngest daughter, Cory about five years ago...where has the time gone. *sniff* 
My girls have always loved to paint or do anything crafty. So here's a blast from the past.

and a close up of Lulu.

I'd  also like to share a tri fold card that I made using another Lulu from this set.

Gotta say I'm loving this latest line of paper from Bobunny, Alora. So bright and fun...like Lulu :)
That's all I've got for today but be sure to pop back tomorrow for some more KKS sneak peaks.

Also don't forget that there is a huge sale going on over at the KKS store so you should definitely check it out. And remember you if you leave comments along your way, someone will win a set of the New Lulu's!!!

To see more Sneak Peaks check out what the rest of Krafty Gals have created.
Thanks for stopping by. See ya tomorrow :)

KKS meets One crazy stamper

Welcome to One Crazy Krafty HOP!!  Today Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps is combining forces with One Crazy Stamper to bring you an incredible blog hop filled with lots of krafty goodness!!

Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps is an online Canadian stamp company with whimsical stamps from several different artists, catering to cardmakers and scrapbookers with lots of different styles!  If you like to colour….you’ll love our images!!!  Check us out at our krafty SHOP!  www.kraftinkimmiestamps.com

For today's KKS and One Crazy Stamper's Blog Hop I used Voodoo Lady. I stamped her in Versafine vintage sepia ink and added just a touch of colour using my copics. I distressed the heck out of this card. I inked, tore, crumpled, sanded and even burned it. lol I think I accomplished the look I was going for. You'd never believe that this paper was from a Christmas 6 x 6. (Kaiser Craft Dec. 25th) Even the tag was Xmasy, but I hid that part.

One Crazy Stamper is a fantastic Canadian crafting store with an online site as well as a brick and mortar store located in Bolton, Ontario!  They carry all kinds of paper, embellishments, Copic markers and SO much more!!  Check them out here:  www.onecrazystamper.com
