It's Wonderful Wednesday over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!


Well, good morning or afternoon, or whatever time of day it is with you, I hope it is great!!  I'm afraid I have not posted for a while, I have been very busy with other things and I really miss the stamping and card making.  

This is a very simple card using the Kraftin' Kimmie's Interior Sentiments.  I have not had time to make too many intricate cards this season, but I wanted to show this as I think you can make a very pretty card without taking too much time.  I love using the Interior Sentiments on the outside of my cards too as I feel very strongly that Christmas is about the birth of Jesus first and foremost.  By using the Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Squares, it makes it a little fancier.  I used some retired Gable Green cardstock matted onto a Confetti White base, added a little patterned paper and some red ribbon and there you go.  I love to make fancy cards, but when I am pressed for time, I am quite happy to do something like this.

Now don't forget, you can show us your cards for a chance to win a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp.  As always, it's Anything Goes, so let's see your creations.

Happy Stampin'

Hey! It's the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps October Release!


Hi everyone!  As the title says, it's time for yet another amazing release over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  I just love all the stamps.  I have chosen to use just the kitty in the mailbox from the Candy Cane Kisses set by Cheryl Alger.  I adore everything she creates.  

For my card, I used the Bo Bunny 'Candy Cane Lane' pad.  It has pages for Christmas and some for just winter.  I had no idea the name was so similar to the stamp set until I just checked!  Anyway, I used Blushing Bride for the card base, then I used Bermuda Bay for most of my matting.  I framed my image with Bermuda Bay Scalloped Nesties after cutting out the image using my Oval Nesties.  Since there was a little gold star on one of the little trees, I thought I would add a star to the mix in Marigold Morning and I put a sentiment from the set on the star.  I added a clear snowflake on the pink patterned paper and I added some Stardust Stickles to it as well as putting a little on the snowy ground.

As well as this great set of stamps, we have a Pom Pom Fairy and a Sparkle Fairy from the uber talented Annie Rodrigue and another set from Thais Narcisso called 'Merry Christ-mouse'.  You won't see a cuter set of mice anywhere!!

Now be sure to hop around to the blogs of all the Krafty Girls and leave a comment at each of them for more chances to win a package of some of this new Krafty rubber.

Happy Hopping,
Diana

It's Wonderful Wednesday again at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!


Yep, it's Wonderful Wednesday again, one of my favourite Challenges!!  As always, the theme is 'Anything Goes' and that suits me just fine.

For my card, I have used the awesome Lucas from our wonderfully talented artist, Cheryl.  I just adore all her stamps.  Did you ever see a cuter stone age boy?  I am always looking for stamps to use on masculine cards, so this was a perfect choice for me.  To be honest, it was given for a birthday almost as soon as I had it finished.  

This stamp comes in a set with two other adorable 'Cave Kids', the other two are Lulu and Lexi.  I coloured with my trusty Copics, then matted the image layer onto one of the Deckle dies from Spellbinders.  I used some very cute papers from Basic Grey, Max and Whiskers.  I used a great little canvas tag and stamped 'You Rock', which is one of the 7 sentiments that come with the set.  They are all so clever and cute.  My card base is Kraft and the frame and 'Happy Birthday' sentiment are punched from Dusty Durango card stock.  I added some linen thread and a little green dinosaur to the tag.

Be sure to visit Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop to see this and other amazing stamps and don't forget to link up your own Wonderful Wednesday 'Anything Goes' creation to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog for a chance to win some Kraftin' Kimmie rubber.

Happy craftin',

Wonderful Wednesday, August 6th.

Well, hello all you lovely stamping folks out there.  I have to confess that I have not been around much for a while.  I have been into some other creative projects, which have tied me up.  I have enjoyed them though and now I'm back to my other love, cardmaking.

As the title says, It's Wonderful Wednesday, which of course is whatever theme you choose.  For my card, I chose Lulu playing the violin from the set 'You're a Rock Star'.  I used a simple layout, my lovely patterned papers are American Crafts pad, XOXO, which came from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop.  I coloured Lulu with my crafty Copics, added some die cut musical notes, a row of bling in pink and clear gems, then added some lovely flowers and some punched out leaves.  I used Regal Rose and Cranberry Crisp cardstock.

Okay, so now it's your turn to make and Anything Goes creations and link it to the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge Blog for a chance to win some Krafty rubber.

Happy Stampin'

Wonderful Wednesday is here again!!




Welcome to another Wonderful Wednesday challenge and we hope you can play along!! As always....it's ANYTHING GOES!! Break out your Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and get krafty!!
  At the end of the month, one winner will be chosen from all the submissions that month and will receive a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps prize pack!!! So if there are four Wednesdays, you have FOUR chances to WIN!! What do you think.....wanna WIN?? Let's see your krafty stuff!!
Here is this week's Wonderful Wednesday inspiration to get you kraftin', thanks to our fabulous Krafty Girls and Guests!! Then....let's see YOUR kreations!!

I made a couple of very simple cards this week.  Sometimes I like to go back to this style of card.  Actually I needed a card for the passing of a gentleman and somehow ended up with the second card, which as you can see, has a lot of pink in it.  So I started over and made something that I hope is more suitable.  I don't think cards always have to be complicated and fancy, sometimes they are just as pretty if they are kept simple.  I just used the 'With Deepest Sympathy' stamp from the Kraftin' Kimmie Sympathy Sentiments Set.  It comes with several sentiments and a beautiful flower.  Now it's your turn,

Happy Stamping,
Diana

Wow, it's Wonderful Wednesday again with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Well, here we are, it's Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps again already, where does the time go? 

I made a simple card this time using one of Kimmie's Birthday Trinkets.  They are such fun to play with and you can use them just as the sentiment on your creation or as the focal point as I've done here.  I used Always Artichoke for my card base and also for the swirly behind the trinket.  I used some lovely Authentique Grace patterned paper for my background and matted some Daffodil Delight behind it and also behind the trinket.  I coloured the trinket with my Copics using colours that match the patterned paper, added some Always Artichoke Grosgrain ribbon and some matching green gems.  As I said, a simple card, but I like it.

Why don't you make something using a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp?  As always, Wonderful Wednesday is Anything goes, so no theme or sketch to worry about and if you link up your creation to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog, you might win some KK rubber.

Happy Stamping,
Diana

P.S. Did you know that the NEW April stamps are NOW available?? YUP! Hop on over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop and check 'em out!!

I wanted to make an Anniversary card, so I used the cute little girl and guy from the 'Sending All My Love' set by our fabulous artist Cheryl Alger.  I used Poppy Parade for the card base with Baja Breeze matted onto it.  All the rest are fabby cute papers from Doodlebug, called Lovebirds, so perfect for this card.  As always, I coloured the image with my Copics, then I cut it out using my Labels Fifteen Spellbinders set.  I left the cardstock inside the die and sponged around the outside using Pretty in Pink chalk ink, then I put a frame around it using some of the patterned paper.  I added some gorgeous Poppy Parade ribbon, added  3 half pearls, then I stamped 'Happy Anniversary' from Kraftin' Kimmie's Everyday Sentiments on a scrap of Baja Breeze and that's it.  I had fun colouring this cute little couple.  I think they are perfect for an Anniversary or Engagement or a Valentine's card.  Okay, now it's your turn.  Can't wait to see your creations!!
 
Happy kraftin'!

Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!

Well, Hi everyone and I hope you are having a Wonderful Wednesday.  It's that time again at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and as usual, it's an Anything Goes Challenge.  Since it's not long till it's Easter, I used one of the adorable stamps from the Spring Sweeties set.  Spring has to come soon, doesn't it?

This time I made a simple A2 size card as I think it works perfectly for this cute little stamp.  There are a bunch more sweet little Easter type stamps in the set and I love playing with them.

So why don't you whip up a card or altered item using one of your favourite Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps for a chance to win some free rubber from Kimmie.  Just link up your creation to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog to be in the running for a win.

Happy Stamping,

It's Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps again! Anything goes, yay!!

Okay, so it's Wednesday again!!  I can't believe a whole week has gone by since I posted my last card!!  Where does the time go?

As usual, Wednesdays are Anything Goes, so you don't have to do a special theme!  I love it because I can make whatever my little heart desires.  Since it's my darling granddaughter's birthday on Thursday, I made this card with her in mind.  She is going to be 22 and is still one of the most amazing and sweet people I know.

I used one of the Springtime Lulu stamps, this one has Lulu on the swing and I think it's so cute.  For my card base I used Baja Breeze and added some retired Pixie Pink and Poppy Parade cardstock.  I love the patterned papers I used, they are called Lovebirds from Doodlebug.  I added some Baja Breeze ribbon, a red heart button, which I threaded some wire through and I used my MS heart border punch on the red cardstock.

Now if you would like to win some Kraftin' Kimmie rubbah, join in on this challenge.  Be sure to link up your photo to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog for a chance to be the randomly chosen winner.

Happy Stampin,
Back soon,
Diana

Come Fly With Me On Wonderful Wednesday!!

Well, here it is, it's Wednesday again!!  Time for some of us Krafty Girls to show a little bit of crafting and to encourage all you crafters out there to create something for our Wonderful Wednesday Challenge.  As always, it's an Anything Goes Challenge, but of course to be in the running for some Kraftin' Kimmie Rubber, you need to use a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp.

I used to uber cute and sexy airline hostess from the February Release, I just love her!!  She is from our very talented Annie Rodrigue and all we Krafty Girls adore everything she ever draws.

I used some MME Charm patterned papers, which I thought worked well with this image.  I coloured her in with my Copics and cut her out using one of my Nesties dies.  I then put some Eucalyptus stickles around the edges as they blended with the colours of the papers.  I added some flowers, and arrow from a pack of MME Cupid's Arrow embellies.  The sentiment came from the patterned papers, but this little hostess comes with the sentiments Come Fly With Me!, Flying High! and Coffee, Tea or Me!

Be sure to check out all the cards at Kraftin' Kimmie's Challenge Blog and link up your creations there for a chance to win some Krafty Rubbah!!

Happy Stamping,

Well, since it was my dear daughter Kraftin' Kimmie's birthday yesterday, I had an excuse to make a card just for her.  I used Lexi holding a balloon from the adorable Together is Better set.  I chose papers from Happy Days by Papermania to pick up my colours from.  These were a Christmas gift from Kimmie.  I found some lovely Groovy Guava card stock, which is long retired, but I love it.  It's a perfect match for the patterned papers.  I also used some Basic Grey for matting as it's nice and dark and contrasty and matches the grey in the papers also.  I also managed to locate my Groovy Guava stitched ribbon, so I used that too.  I used some gorgeous grey fancy gem strips, which were a Christmas gift from my wonderful team mate Melanie.  I thought they worked perfectly.

Now let's see your creations, Wonderful Wednesdays are so easy because it's always 'anything goes'.  Have lots of fun stamping.

I made a card using one of the very sweet fairytale characters released this month, this one is from the set 'Once Upon A Time 3', I would say she is Goldilocks.  I had fun colouring her little ringlets.  I cut out the image using my Big Scalloped Oval Nesties.  I tried something new this time, I painted a border around the embossed edge using Siren red Smooch ink.  It turned out not too badly.  I used some gorgeous MME Cupid's Arrow patterned papers and matching Enamel Shapes given to me by my dear daughter Kraftin' Kimmie!!  Am I a name dropper or what?!!  The sentiment is from the set and there is another one that works with this stamp, it's 'Hope Your Day Is Just Right'.  I also added a cute die down the right side of the front.
