KKS challenge #114 It's Kraftin' Kimmie's Birthday!!!

This week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge is to make a Birthday card...well beings Kimmie's is a very close friend of mine and if things go right we can usually get together at least once a week to chat and play with these fabulous stamps. So I made her a Birthday card using Lulu. I'm not sure if Kimmie ever did ballet but I thought she'd like it. :)

I did my card a little different then I typically do. I saw a card at my MIL house like this and loved the look of it. I thought Lulu would look great as a focal point on a card like this. Sorry I forget what they call this type of card.

And here's a side profile pic....

The papers I used are from MME Lost & Found - Madison Avenue. I added some prima flowers that I had been hoarding (Kimmie's worth it! lol )  and a strip of pearls from the dollar store. I love these!!! You get tons in a package, a nice variety of colours too.  I framed the sentiment using my fancy labels spellbinders.

I hope you had a wonderful Birthday Kimmie and I hope everyone else enjoyed today's challenge. To see what the rest of the Krafty Girls came up with check them out at the KKS challenge Blog, and If you'd like to play along you will have the chance to win Tabitha.

KKS Challenge #112

Hello there and welcome to this week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge. This weeks challenge was to Spotlight an image. So I decided to play along with Lulu just cause she's so stinkin Cute!!

So here's my card...

I used my spellbinders to cut a window and then framed it with the loopy Spellbinders. The papers are  Happier from  My Minds Eye and I added a few butterflies using my Martha Stewart's punch.

and here's what the inside looks like.

KKS Challenge #107

Hi there!! welcome to this week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge. Today's challenge is to use heat or dry embossing on our cards. So I'm going to take you back a couple of few years when I first got my Cuttlebug. I thought this thing was the best tool ever!!! I especially loved how quick and easy it was to emboss. No stylus tool that left your hand aching that you had to take a break from crafting. lol
So needless to say I bought a whole bunch of embossing folders, I don't use them nearly as often so it was kinda nice to pull them out for this challenge.

I used this lil cutie from the Snips and Snails set, coloured him using my copics matching to the MME All spice paper, added some Baker's twine and a couple of buttons. For the embossing I used one of those narrow CB embossing Borders.

Also the Frugal Friday specials are now on at the KKS store so pop by and check out those deal and also drop by the KKS challenge blog to see what the rest of the Krafty gals came up with for this week's challenge.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend. :)
