Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge #24 & April Release Preview #3!


Hello Krafty friends! Are you up for a challenge today!? well, we have a new KKS Challenge for you and I'm previewing another fabulously Medieval image from the April Release of Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, that will be available at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps On-line store tomorrow, April 11th!
So for the Challenge this week Krafty Girl Donna from Sunny Australia has set the challenge and it is a colour combo...Red, Black and White! If you join us for the challenge and use a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp on your creation you will be entered to win the new release "You Make Me Happy" Cindy and Mindy image that Donna has used on her super duper sweet card!

So for my card I have used the oh so regal, Guinevere, on my card! I just adore her and she comes with 2 sentiments "Your are the Queen" and "It's good to be Queen!". I stamped her on Neenah card and coloured her with my Copics, cut the image out with my Nesties. I left the image in the die and used it as a stencil and inked with Pumice Stone and Black Soot Distress inks to colour in the background.
Again, I have used Scenic Route pp and some red velvet ribbon and made my cardbase with white American Crafts cardstock! I have embellished with a few Primas layered with roses from the dollar store and I added a little Stickles for some shimmer to the flowers and Guinevere! I also encrusted her Crown with a little bling! The sentiment is from Kimmie's Everyday Sentiment set and I again cut the image with Nestie tag and inked with Pumice Stone and Black Soot Distress Ink.

Here is the inside....I used one of the 2 sentiments that come with Guinevere and stamped it on Technique Tuesday FUNdamentals chipboard from the Swanky Frames set. Then Inked it the chipboard pieces with Barn Door and a touch of Black Soot Distress inks.
So that is my card....do you remember when I mentioned yesterday that Kimmie has a "Little" Krafty goodness in store for you all? Well, Kimmie has 4 new additions to the Krafty Girls team....we now have the "Junior Krafty Girls" to help inspire you and your young ones to get Krafty with KKS! Please stop by the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog as Kimmie will introduce the 4 Junior Krafty Girls!
Here is, Junior Krafty Girl, Hannah's card for this week's Challenge and she has used her fav Kraftin' Kimmie stamp, Daisy! She coloured Daisy with her Stampin' Up markers.
Hannah went through the stash of paper in my craftroom and found this paper that was perfect for the colour combo this week!

She used some ribbon, a KI Memories rub-on and a few red gems. The sentiment is from Kimmie's Everyday Sentiment set.
I think she did a fabulous job on her card for this weeks challenge! I am such a proud Mama, smile! You can also see this card that she posted on her own blog Lucky Girl!
I really hope you can join us this week and I hope you can swing on by the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog and have a wee peek at all the stunning creations my the Krafty Girls and the
Junior Krafty Girls! Also, stop by again tomorrow as we are having our Release Day Blog Hop!!!!
