Kraftin Kimmie Inspirational Wednesday - Hoppy Friends

Hello krafty friends!
It's INSPIRATIONAL WEDNESDAY,
the day we provide you with a bit of extra
krafty inspiration to help you get creative
with your krafty stamps!


Hi everyone!
I have a fun friendship card for you using Hoppy Friends!


I used the Krafty Scenery Stencil for the hills and the Krafty scenery 2 stencil for the grass in Charming ChartreuseGoblin Green and Mossy Meadow. ink  I used the Chubby Cloud stencil in Magical Midnight ink and inked the background in Magical Midnight ink.



I stamped the sentiment with Goblin Green and Mossy Meadow.  I put the Mossy Meadow just on the top and bottom of the sentiment to give it a two-tone look.  I used some Nebula Stickles Glitter Gel rubbed on the top of the sky.  I added some flowers from my stash and finished it off with Pastel Dots

Stamped all the images using Wicked Black, colored them up with my Copic markers  

Used Copic Colors:

Bunny - W5, W3, W1, W0 and R20
Mouth - E04 and R20
Bee - W9, W7 and W5 with Y17, Y13 and Y11


If you want to add this stamp set to your 
collection, just hop on over to the KKS Shop!


Happy Krafting!
