KKS Challenge 171, Use your Favourite KK Stamp

Hi there and welcome to this week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps challenge, which is to use your favourite Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamp! Really? Just one?!

Well I've definitely have more then one but today I chose to use our Krafty Katastrophe,   which is our special edition stamp from this past years Krafty Day.

I don't have a cat, but I do have a very large dog that likes to lie on my craft room floor, which isn't all that big and I'm forever rolling over her poor tail. :( Don't be alarmed, it's mostly just fur. So anyway, I found this cute little box at a thrift shop and thought it would come in handy for something. I Loved the bright colours that are on it. And now with this cute lil Krafty Girl and a few flowers,  it's even more appealing :)


Thanks for stopping by, and feel free to play along with this week's challenge.

With Pixie Lulu I coloured her with my copics then carefully trimmed her out and added some pop dots to make her stand out a little bit more. Added a flourish of bling behind her and I added the sentiment to the bottom corner heat embossing it with some silver.


Now how sweet is Lexi with this little lamb. I think she's one of my favourite's from this release. I wanted to keep the colours really soft so I chose to go with one of my favourite colour combos, teal and brown. I found the perfect papers in a MME, Breeze 6x6 pad. Added some sheer ribbon and primas and it came together quite nicely.

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!!

KKS day four of Sneak Peaks and a Challenge

Hey there and welcome back for some more Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps sneak peaks. Today we are featuring Annie's latest fabulous creations and you're gonna love them. I think they are definitely one of my favourite release!!

Today is also challenge day and the challenge this week is a sketch.


And here's my take on it....



The paper is from Marcella K, Lemon Drops mat deck. I added a couple of tickets from a Tim Holtz pack. after scrunching them up and adding some distress ink.  For the sentiment, I flipped one over and tried to replicate what the original ticket looked like. Not too shabby. I used my Martha Stewart drippy goo border punch to make it look like dripping butter and then found some Sculpture flowers in my stash from Prima that I thought kinda looked like popcorn.

My girlfriend was here visiting from Vancouver and she really liked this card, and beings her birthday was in June, this card now has a happy new home. Again Happy Belated Birthday Erin. xo

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to pop over to the KKS challenge blog to play along and to see more of this week's challenge.

I have many fav's, but one that has always stood out in my mind is Angry Ballerina. It always makes me snicker when i see this poor girls expression. Maybe it's because my youngest daughter has always been so dramatic in her expressions that it reminds me of her a little.

I feel SO extremely blessed both in my family life and in my 'job'...if you can call it that!!  I am so incredibly happy to be doing something I LOVE and bringing krafty joy to lots of krafty peeps!!!

SO....to say thank you....I have put EVERYTHING in the store ON SALE from 15-50% OFF!!! YEP!  That includes ALL currently in stock stamps in ALL of the categories....INCLUDING our newest JUNE releases!!!  But it's while supplies last, so if you've had your eyes on some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, now is the time to grab them!!  I've also got our famous TOTE BAGSon sale, along with some Kimmie Kard Kits!!!  AND I've got Annie's amazing artwork too, in the form of 5x7 prints, keychains and magnets!!!  This is our biggest sale yet....so enjoy!!

Day Three of KKS sneak peaks

Hi there and welcome back to day three of Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps. Today we're featuring Emilie's newest creations and they are so sweet!! I played with a couple of the images, here's a peak of the first one.


I coloured her in with my copics markers matching her to the Cosmo Cricket Pixie-licious papers that I used, ironically. Lol I added a little bit of glitter to her wand and wings using my Gelly Roll Sakura Star dust pen. This is my go to pen for adding just a subtle amount of glitter. I also finally used my prima roses that I got way back at Christmas time that I've been hoarding, but I thought she was so cute she deserved to have them right there beside her. Underneath the rose is a little flourish of gems that I picked up from the dollar store. Stamped the sentiment and then punched it out with SU word window punch and then framed it with the fancy labels punch in a nice glittery teal.

For my second card the papers are from MME Happy Go Lucky, and I think that's just how she looks. :) Framed her with my spellbinders and inked around the edges with some SU soft sky. It's a great colour to use for this technique.


I added a a scalloped border and some sparkly butterflies with a MS punch, and added some glittery ribbon. Again from the $ store. Sometimes you can find the best little finds there.


Thanks for stopping by and be sure to pop back tomorrow you won't be disappointed!!

KKS challenge #127

Welcome to this week's Kraftin Kimmie's Stamps challenge. With Mother's Day just around the corner our challenge this week is to make a card for mom. Awwww :)

So I thought using Lulu playing dress up was perfect for this challenge. I used some designer paper from my stash so I'm not sure what line it is from. I added a heart border using my Martha Stewart punch, and a few prima flowers with a pearl brad.


The sentiment I used is from an Amy r set that I punched out using a Stampin Up punch. Then I remembered these cute little charms that I had bought along time ago and thought it would complete the card nicely. :)

To see more of this week's cards or to play along stop by the KKS challenge blog.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!!

KKS challenge - It's Spring!!

Welcome to this week's Kraftin Kimmie's Stamps challenge. This week's challenge was to make a spring themed card. Well I just had to use one of our flower girls from Annie. So I decided to use Calla Lily, I thought she'd be perfect!!


I coloured her using my copics, then I decided to paper piece her dress using some really cute flowered paper from Stampin Up. I also added some stickles and a little bit of shading to her dress and a few pearls in her hair.


I found these really pretty pearl brads at Hobby Lobby I believe they are from the Spare Parts line and added a vine flourish with a cheery lynn die cut. I used a couple of my MS punches to create the border and the butterflies.

Thanks for stopping by and to play along in this weeks challenge or to see more of this weeks cards pop on over to the KKS challenge blog.
Have a great weekend.

KKS April Release day is here!!!


Do YOU know what day it is???  It’s Krafty RELEASE Day at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps!!!  And we’re celebrating with a KRAFTY HOP!!  There are SO many incredible new stamps to SEE this month, so let’s get started!    

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!!  Lulu is back from Cheryl Alger.....we know how much you love her!!  So we have a new set called PLAYTIME LULU!  We also have TWO fantastic sets of adorable BUGGIES from Emilie Goulet called BUG BUDDIES 1 AND BUG BUDDIES 2!!!  And of course we have an amazing new set of six WIZARD OF OZ inspired stamps from Annie Rodrigue!  AND a fabulous OZ SENTIMENTS set to match!!!!  Eeeeeeee!!!

You will get to see most of the new images today as you sit back and enjoy our APRIL Krafty Hop!  If you want to start from the beginning, just head over to the Kraftin’ Kimmie Challenge Blog!  As you hop from blog to blog, be sure to leave a comment at each and every stop because some lucky stampers will win packages of these incredible stamps from the new release!!  And when you’re done hoppin’, be sure to head over to the Kraftin’ Kimmie shop, because ALL the new images are NOW available!  And of course, as always, we have our Gimme Kimmies Kits available for those of you who ‘need it all’!!  The stamps are grouped together by artist and are available at a discount, but only for a limited time!!


My girls were off on a play date today so I had tons of Krafty time to myself!! Yeah!!!  :)
I was on such a role today in my craft room that I made three cards for today. I wanted to talk a little about this last one because some of the details didn't really show up that well in my photo. I wanted to create a scene but wasn't really sure how I wanted to do it. I first thought about a pop up card but my Tin man was a bit thin and flimsy so I scratched that idea. Then I thought maybe an easel card would work nicely...and I'm quite happy the way it all came together. I found some great papers in my stash as the backdrop, some it you might recognize from and old 6x6 from Stampin Up.The stone paper I'm not sure where it came from, sorry. Probably a DCWV pack but i can't say for sure. So I dusted off a couple of old tools to create the scene, like my heat gun and my fiskars dry embossing plates. First of all I embossed the Tin man onto some silver metallic cardstock with some black embossing powder and I paper pieced his ax.  I had an embossing plate that kinda looked like a stone pathway so I used that on some glittery yellow cardstock to create the yellow brick road. Really it was all quite simple, I liked how simple and clean it looked so I kept it just as is. :) 

Thanks so much for stopping by and if you're still with me through all of this you're next stop on the blog hop is, Melanie.  HAPPY HOPPING!!

KKS Challenge 122 - Heavy Metal

Hi there and welcome to this week's Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps Challenge. This week's challenge is to use metal on your cards. It can be real, faux or just in the image. Well I had the cutest, most perfect charm to go along with the lovely gardening Lulu  ( from the Springtime Lulu set) so I decided to play with her this week.


Using an old line of Stampin Up papers, the card came together quite nicely. Little bit of inking and a bit of distressing. Don't you love when it all just works out.  I did notice after having my picture and post almost completely done that my twine came a little loose with the weight of the charm, so just ignore that little detail. :(  boooo.

Well I hope you all have a great weekend, I'm off with my hubby to Niagara Falls for a belated Birthday getaway!! Sooooo looking forward to a weekend just the two of us. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for looking after our girls for us....oh Lexie, Our spoiled Berner. :)

Check out the rest of the DT's work at the KKS Challenge Blog and also the Frugal Friday specials are now on as well. 

Thanks again for stopping by.

More KKS Sneak Peaks!!

Today is Day three of Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps sneak peaks. Today we're featuring Emilie's newest creations. And I've done something a little different then what I usually do. I was originally a scrapbooker and never even touched a stamp....well now it's the total opposite. I still love to scrapbook, so I've combined both passions.

Here's what I came up with using Emilie's cute lil seagull. Totally reminds me of Finding Nemo....lol


This was last year in Port Stanley at a friends cottage. We had such a great weekend and the girls absolutely LOVE going to the beach!!! This is my youngest daughter Cory. Going for a dip, playing in the sand....

and having some fries.


Fortunately the seagulls left us alone. :)

To see more of Emilie's Tweets and Twitters sets check out the Kraftin' Kimmie challenge blog. For a chance to win leave comments along the way and two random winners will be selected each winning a set of Tweets and Twitters!!!

Now go PEAK!!! :)

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.

Also Kimmie's having a great sale. You can see the deets HERE.http://kraftinkimmiestamps.blogspot.com/

Oh and be sure to hop on over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Facebook page for some draws and giveaways!!!  We're gonna have LOTS o' FUN!!
