Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - KKS Challenge # 363 and Color Throwdown #424...Have a sweet day!

 

Hello stampin' friends! This is my first card of 2017 and I decided to get "Krafty"! I love challenges and so I played along with the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge # 363 - Your Fave Colour....I love GREEN and it just so happened that the Color Throwdown had one of my fave colour combos for CTD # 424 challenge. I also used the fabulous sketch that they have for the KKS January sketch. I had a little look through my KKS stamps and decided to ink up this adorable Lulu from the Lulu and Friends Stamp set.


I LOVE this colour combo and used MFT Heavyweight Cardstock in Black Licorice, Razzel Berry and Sour Apple


This is such a great sketch....LOVE it too!

I made the inked paper with the "Smooshing technique" and used Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron Distress ink. I coloured up Lulu from the Lulu and Friends stamp set with my Copics and cut the image out with my Pierced Rectangle STAX Die-namics and left the image in the die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress ink

I stamped a sentiment from the Lulu and Friends stamp set with Black Licorice Hybrid Ink on the Razzel Berry Heavyweight cardstock cut with the Pierced Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics. The circle element is created with dies from Blueprints 13 and the heart is from the Staggered Heart Border.  I embellished with some black Gumdrops and hemp cord.

I finished off the inside of the card too....I stamped a shadow image and sentiment from the Birthday Lulu Stamp set.  Thanks SO much for stopping by and havin' a wee peek at my card for the KKS Challenge #363 with the KKS January Sketch and the Color Throwdown # 424!
