September Skrappy Challenge!

September Skrappy Challenge!

Hidee ho, good stampers!!! Welcome back to another month of Skrappy Fun at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!!
We challenge YOU to make Anything BUT a Card!!!
For this challenge you can make anything you wanna....except a card! So that means bookmarks, gifts, scrapbook pages, journal art, planner pages, tags, boxes...pretty much anything that includes a krafty stamp!!

Just make sure to include a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp and make sure it's a NEW creation! As soon as we have at least five people playing, we'll be giving away a PRIZE!!! yep! One lucky krafter will WIN a $20 gift voucher to the krafty shop!

You have a whole month to play along until Monday, September 23rd at midnight EST!

Life is a Joy


I created my own background with Ruby Red and Charming Chartreuse reinkers.

I dropped the ruby red on Yupo paper sprayed with 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and then sprayed it with air until I liked the look.


I then repeated the same technique with the Charming Chartreuse until I like the blending. Be careful where the colors blend as these are not alcohol ink and will blend together. I didn't want any muddy colors, so I just went slow.

I then cut my tag out of the background and matted it on red cardstock. I then attached the super kit couple from Life is a Joy. I stamped the sentiment directly on the Yupo tag.

The couple was colored with Copics:
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00 and E000
Brown Hair: E29, E25 and E21
Blond Hair: E18, E15, YR23 and Y21
Green: G28, G24, G21 and YG03
Red: R59, R29 and R22
Shoes: W3 and W1
Chicks: Y17, Y15 and Y11
Bench: E79, E77, E74 and E71

They are perfect for tags and bags and boxes...oh my! This set is perfect for all your FALL-ish designs!

First Up I created this super cool background with Goblin Green & Wicked Black Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Ink, the Creepy Cobweb stencil and my gel plate.



After I had the background, I embossed the the All Hallow's Night sentiment on black cardstock with white embossing powder. I finished it off with a glitter spider button.


For this card I used Thermo-Web transfer gel through the Bats & Moons stencil and then placed gold foil on the moons and black foil on the bats and transferred the foil onto the background with the Minc.

I then added a border of cardstock with gold pealies and with the Spooky krafty dots in three colors and sizes and finished off the Witches sentiment with a witches hat and eye buttons.
