Saturday Challenge - Amazing Women!

Ch# 477 - Amazing Women!
Hello and welcome to another fun Saturday Challenge!
Are you ready for some krafty fun?
We can't wait for you to play along and share your amazing krafty kreations!

This week your challenge is....  AMAZING WOMEN!

I colored the fairy with Copics:
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00 and E000 with R20
Hair: RV29, RV25, Rv23 and RV21
Dress: YG09, YG07, YG05 and YG03
Wings: B00 and B000
Star: Y19, Y17 and Y13

I used two colors of embellishment mouse with the Kraftin Kimmie Krafty Scenery Stencil.  I cut out a section for the fairy to float on and then matted and mounted on square of plaid.  I added clouds and flowers to finish off the card.  I also used Spring and Rainbow Krafty Dots!  Don't be afraid to mix those krafty dots!!

I think this card would be so fun to give to that Amazing Women in your life!

Kraftin Kimmie Inspirational Wednesday - Unicorns & Rainbows

Hello krafty friends!  
Today is INSPIRATIONAL WEDNESDAY -
the day we provide you with a bit of extra
crafty inspiration to help you get creative
with your krafty stamps!

I'm up on the Kraftin Kimmie blog today and I used the adorable Unicorns & Rainbows set.


I started out by making my own sprays with Kraftin Kimmie reinkers.  I used distilled water in the mini mister and then added a long squirt of Raspberry Rose, Charming Chartreuse and lastly Mermaid Melody.


I held the spray bottle about 12 inches away and sprayed my three colors.  I sprayed on Ranger Glossy finish paper.

I then cut out a panel for my card and matted it on black cardstock.  I then added cloud and rainbow die cuts to the card.

I colored the Unicorns with Copics:
Pink: RV29, RV25, RV23 and RV21
Lime: YG09, YG07, YG05 and YG03
Blue: BG09, BG07. BG05 and BG02
Gold: E08, YR24 and YR23
Grey: W3, W1 and W00 and T3, T1 and blender

I stamped the sentiment directly on the ink spritzed panel.

Remember to use the reinkers for more than just re-inking the pads!!!

Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peeks Day 3 - It's a Mystery

April Krafty Peeks...Day THREE! It's a Mystery PLUS a Challenge!
Welcome back to our third and FINAL day of April Krafty Peeks!
Today we have another fantastic stamp set from our
newest artist, Neda Sadreddin!
It's called IT'S A MYSTERY!

This adorable set features several main detective images plus a so many accessory stamps and a bunch of coordinating sentiments! I mean, here's a clue....it's AWESOME!
Of course, today is also Challenge Day and as always, during release week the theme is Anything Goes! So create a card, scrapbook page, altered item.....with a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp! Use any sketch, design, color scheme you want!


I created a night sky using Copics:
Blue: B39, B37, B29, B26 and B24
Grey: C5, C3 and C1
Black: W9, W7, W5 and W3
Brown: E29, E25, E23 and E21



I created the background paper by inking with Creamy Caramel and then crumpling it up and inking again.  I inked and crumpled a few times to get the different shades.  I then stenciled the houndstooth stencil with Nuvo embellishment mousse in black ash.  I rolled one of the corners down and distressed the edges to give it an old look and feel.  I then embossed a piece of kraft cardstock and inked it with the creamy caramel and distressed the edges.

I added a button and finished it off with the earthtone krafty dots.  I also sponged a little wicked black over the houndstooth stencil to add some interest to the your age is a mystery.  


We can't wait to see your creations and you have all week to play along (until April 19th) and we'll announce the winner at the end of the month! Feel free to upload your pic to the folder in our Krafty Friends facebook group! You could WIN a $40 gift voucher to the krafty shop!
