Krafty Kimmies Kolour it up Challenge day 10

My coloring today (day 10 in the challenge) is featuring Sweet as can be which you can find here in Kraftin' Kimmies store.

I finally found the cloud stencil that I've wanted! Its by My Favorite Things and it's called Mini Cloud Edges. I was so please on how easy it was to use and how wonderful it turned out. I used Broken China Oxide ink and then tried to stamp the sentiment with wicked black ink. Sadly I didn't used my stamping platform and miss stamped using a block. Lesson learnt! I will use the platform next time for sure!

Krafty Kimmies Kolour it up Challenge day 9

Where did the weekend go!?! I had big plans to color and clean house but it was so sunny and all the neighbourhood kids ended up over playing on the trampoline and enjoying some time in the sprinkler. Before I knew it the weekend was over. So today I got busy first thing this morning and inked up this girl power image for the very first time and got to use a brand new stencil that I picked up on holidays from Memories and More!

My card today (day 9 in the challenge) is featuring Girl Power stamp set which you can find here in Kraftin' Kimmies store.

My project today is featuring Princess of Tea which you can find here. I printed the image out twice, colored the full version with copics and created a shaker card with the second image fussy cut and applied to the outside of the shaker.

It's called KICK ASSY BIRTHDAY!!!

I'm super excited to share this set because it was the Super Secret stamp set that was included in the latests Krafty Kard Kit!!!

In the kit was a fabulous embossing folder that I wanted to showcase with the stamps. I inked up the folder with picked raspberry, wilted violet and cracked pistachio Distress Oxide inks from Tim Holtz. Spritzed the folder with water and ran the folder through the big shot. I love the watercolor look this technique gave the paper.

Kraftin Kimmie Challenge #1 - A Brand New Stamp!

Two posts in one day!?! Are you guys as shocked as I am? I think I'm finally getting my mojo back after losing my Grannie after Christmas.

Kraftin Kimmie has five challenges that end today. I'm going to play along and see if I can get all 5 competed.

Here's #1 Use a Brand New Stamp.
I'm being buy sets on Frugal Friday (a few sets that are up to 40% off!) and my stash of uninked sets is crazy. Today I used the oxide inks (faded jeans, broken china, peacock feathers and cracked pistachio) on my craft mat and sprayed with water, layed watercolor paper down to get full coverage and create gorgous background for this card. Sporty Boys, karate boy was colored with copics and fussy cut out. (that never happens here so that was another challenge for me.)

Kraftin Kimmie Guest Designer Call

Good Morning Friends,

Have you seen how amazing the Kraftin Kimmie Stamps are? It's not very often that she does a call for Guest Designers so I have to jump at this opportunity. Kimmie has asked that we post our two favorite cards we've previously made.

My first favorite is the birthday card I made for my sister in law last July.
For this card I've used Beach Blanket Bingo


And of course my second favorite is a Christmas Card! Best season of the year!
For this card I've used Reindeer Games


As so many of our crafting stores in Central Alberta have closed their doors it's very important to me to support Canadian Craft Stores. The customer service is outstanding from Kraftin Kimmie, I would highly recomend that you visit the store and come to the facebook group to play along with the challenges. I can't wait to see who Kim choices!

Have a Krafty Day!
Wanda
