Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps February Release Krafty BLOG HOP!!!

Hey, Krafty friends!!! Do YOU know what day it is???  It’s Krafty RELEASE Day at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps!!!  We’re celebrating with a KRAFTY HOP!!  There are SO many incredible new stamps to SEE, 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 LULU AND FRIENDS!  We also have TWO fantastic sets of feathered images from Emilie Goulet called TWEETS AND TWITTERS 1 and TWEETS AND TWITTERS 2!!!  And of course we have an amazing new set of six SUPERHEROES from Annie Rodrigue!  And don’t forget the perfect new set to work with ALL your stamps.....IN STICHES!!

You will get to see most of the new images today as you sit back and enjoy our FEBRUARY Krafty Hop!  If you've come from Krafty Girl, Nicole's blog you are in the right spot! 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! 

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!!

For my card I have used Rescue Ranger from the SUPERHEROS collection by Annie Rodrigue. I adore this stamp...she is SO cute and everyone needs a Rescue Ranger to save the day now and again. That special friend that knows when to bring the ice cream, tissues and a few good books to help mend a broken heart, chase the blues away or when you're under the weather.  So, I coloured Rescue Ranger with my Copics, cut her out with my circle Nesties and left the image in the die and inked with Spiced Marmalade. The papers are BasicGrey Hopscotch 6x6 papers. I used my MFT Jumbo Monarch Border Die-namics and stamped the sweet sentiment that comes with Rescue Ranger on the Oval Tab Die-namics. I added some Twinery Twine in Shore and a BG button and a sprinkling of chocolatey brown half-pearls.

Here is the inside...I stamped Rescue Ranger again in Rose Bud Memento ink and used my MFT Layered Labels Die-namics and the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. The sentiment is from Kimmie's Everyday Sentiment set.

Now, there is one more krafty stop before we wind up this very KRAFTY and very FUN Hop and that is, Kraftin' Kimmie, herself!!! So hop on over to Kraftin' Kimmie's Korner and see what gorgeousness Kimmie has to share with you! Don't forget to leave a comment here on my blog first and then when you are done at Kimmie's blog, go do your krafty shoppin' over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop!

Happy Krafty Shoppin'!!!

I used BasicGrey Little Black Dress 6x6 papers and several MFT Die-namics dies to make this card. I flipped the sketch and substituted the scalloped border on Michele's sketch for the grass....thought it was a little more manly and sporty, smile. I added some black gems here and there and some Twinery Twine.  I also used my Stacking Star Die-namics and the MFT Just the Ticket Die-namics and stamp set.

My Favorite Things Stamps...WSC # 58....Make a Wish!

Hello stampin' friends! Just a quick post to share a card that I made for the My Favourite Things, Wednesday Stamp Club Challenge # 58! Today is my Mom's b-day so I took the opportunity to use this week's gorgeous sketch and made her this birthday card!

I have been neglecting my super cute MFT A La Mode girlies lately and my Mom always loved the TV show, I dream of Jeannie, so I inked up this CUTE ALM Genie and I coloured her with my Copics markers. I teamed her up with this beautiful Lily Bee paper pad, Head Over Heels, and I used several MFT Die-namics Dies too. I used my 1/4 Rosette Die and followed this video tutorial by Joanne to make this mini Rosette which was the perfect size for my card and I used the circle parts of the Fishtail Banner Die-namics to add to the centre of the rosette. I also used the crown border Die-namics and stamped one of the sentiments from the ALM Genie stamp set on white card cut with the ribbon die from the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. To embellish I sprinkled some gems here and there and used my Sakura Star Dust pen for a little glitter to the ALM Genie girlie.

Here is the inside of this card....I stamped the ALM Genie again in Rose Bud Memento ink and used the Layered Labels Die-namics Die and another one of the sweet sentiments that comes in the ALM Genie Stamp set.

Well, I think my mom is going to like her card...I know I'm quite happy with how it turned out! Thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card for the MFTWSC58!

Have a stampin' great day!!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge # 115...Pins and Pearls...You Make Me Quiver!!

Hello Krafty friends! Well, I have been dying to ink up sweet Artemis from Annie's New Goddesses Collection. When I saw that the new challenge this week over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge blog is Pins and Pearls, I thought I would play along and finally ink up Artemis!!! Speaking of, Artemis, I just LOVE her to bits, if you do too, and you would like a chance to win your very own, Artemis, then you'll want to check out my 40th Birthday Blog Candy HERE!

Please go check it out and add you name to the inlinkz tool!

So for my card I used this scrumptious Teresa Collins Carolina Breeze 6x6 paper pad! I coloured Artemis with my Copics cut her out with the Nesitie and left the image in the die an inked with Pumice Stone Distress ink. I also used my MFT Double Scalloped border die but it kinda got covered up by the Prima flowers. I have used lots of pearls...love 'em and the pearl pins are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I have had them in my stash forever. The sentiment that comes with Artemis is stamped on pp cut with one of the ribbon dies from the MFT First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. I used a Viva Decor Pearl Pen to add the wee pearls to her helmet.

Here is the inside...I stamped Artemis in London Fog Memento ink and used my MFT Layered Labels Die-namics. The sentiment is from Kimmie's Everyday Sentiment set.

I coloured Christina with my Copics and when I first saw her I knew I wanted to do something funky with her fab hair!  So I gave her hot pink hair with black tips. I also added Sakura Clear Glaze pen to her goggles! I teamed her up with some pretty Echo Park Be Mine 12x12 papers. I used my MFT Monarch Border Die-namics again and added hot pink half pearls on it and sprinkled few more pearls here and there. I also used my MFT Hearts of Plenty Die-namics and the Just the Ticket Stamps and Die-namics Set. I thought this sentiment was perfect for Christina she is a strong and feisty chic but she has a fragile side to her too.

Tickled Pink Stamps...Guest DT for Feburary Release...Lil Futuristic Lad Stefan!

Hey crafty friends! I am back again today with another preview for the new Tickled Pink Stamps February release! Today the Pink Ladies are featuring cards with this super cool guy, Lil Futuristic Lad Stefan. The 4 new Lil Futuristic Digi images will be available on February 11th at 5:00 p.m. at the Tickled Pink Stamps Shop. Please remember to leave a comment here on my post and on all the Pink Ladies blogs for a chance to win Futuristic Stefan by Digital Download only.

So, I have to tell you "boy" cards are not my fave and I really struggle making masculine cards but this card with Futuristic Stefan came together so easily and I had so much fun colouring him up with my Copics!  I was still on my Si-Fi/Action Movie kick, when making this Stefan card. I used this great MME Kraft Funday 6x6 paper pad. I cut the image out with my long rectangle Nesties and left the image in the die and inked with Old Paper Distress ink and Bundled Twigs.

I used my MFT At the Movies Stamp and Die-namics and the Just the Ticket Stamp sets for the sentiment on the ticket.  I also used the MFT Mini Film Strip Border Die-namics and the Monarch Border Die-namics. I added green gems to the monarch border and then sprinkled a few here and there.

Here is the inside...I framed another Stefan in the Large Film Die-namics frame and used a large sentiment from the At the Movies Stamp and Die-namics set.

Well, thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my Stefan card! Remember to leave a comment for a chance to win a digi image of Stefan. Also, pop on over to the Tickled Pink Stamps blog and check out all the gorgeous cards by the Pink Ladies.

I also want to thanks everyone for all the lovely birthday wishes! I am having some birthday blog candy so check it out here and please enter!
