October Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peeks Day #5

 
 
It's Sneak Peek Day #5 and release Day!!!  ALL of the new stamp sets you've been seeing all week will be releasing THIS AFTERNOON after the LIVE ONLINE RELEASE PARTY! Today, I'm sharing a fabulous stamp set by Annie Rodrigue!  It's called COCOA COZY.  Isn't it adorable!!  The set comes with the fabulous main image plus four coordinating sentiments!

 
For my card, I decided to warm pallet.  I started with some patterned paper that reminded me of the mountains and winter sweaters.  Then, I colored my image to match and die cut it into a square. Next, I layered my patterned papers in the background and mounted my image on top of them.  I created a fun little hot cocoa embellishment using some dies from My Favorite Things.  A little twill ribbon on the side tops it all off.

Kraftin Kimmie October Sneak Peeks Day #4

 
Hi there!  it's Day #4 of the October Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peeks and I have a gorgeous set to share with you guys!  It features two main angel images plus five coordinating sentiments!
It's by artist Emilie Goulet and is called
HEAVENLY HOLIDAY!
 
For my card, I decided to go super girly!  I chose some beautiful glitter papers in non-traditional Christmas colors.  Then I colored my image to match, die cut a lacy oval and cut my image to fit inside.  I added a ton of die cut layers to the background, popped my image with foam tape and topped it all off with some paper flowers from Magnolia Stamps and Wild Orchid Crafts.  A little stitched tag holds the sentiment.

Kraftin Kimmie October Sneak Peek #3

Hello, hello!  It's Day #3 of the October Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peeks and we're sharing an adorable new set from artist Cheryl Grant! It features two of our sweet kiddos, Lucas and Lexi....plus their furry little friends! The set is called COLD NOSES and features two main images PLUS five coordinating sentiments!

 
For my card, I decided to keep things clean and simple.  I found some adorable sled paper and thought it matched perfectly so I colored my image to match, stamped a fun little sentiment in the corner and mounted it on some grey cardstock.  I used two strips of pattered paper behind the image and topped it off with a banner punch and a snowflake button.

Kraftin Kimmie October Sneak Peek Day #2

 
 
 
It's Day TWO of the October Krafty Peeks at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!...
Did you LOVE yesterday's nativity set called Christmas Blessings? Well today we are back with a coordinating set called
CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS SENTIMENTS!
This gorgeous set is filled with spiritual sentiments in gorgeous fonts and can be used on their own as the focal point of your creations or in combination with any image! The set contains EIGHT stunning sentiments!
 
 
For my card, I chose some pretty blue nativity paper and colored my image to match.  I decided to pair the little Shepherd from yesterday's set with the sentiment since they coordinate so perfectly.  I stamped the sentiment in dark navy to match my papers and die cut into a circle.  Then I colored my image to match with Copic Markers.  I added some punched tags, rhinestones, and swirly photo corners to finish it off.

Kraftin Kimmie October Krafty Peeks Day #1

 
Hello!  It's finally here!  Day ONE of the
October Krafty Peeks at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!
 
First on the list is the beautiful new nativity set by artist Becky Pearce!
  It's called CHRISTMAS BLESSINGS!
This sweet 4x6 clear stamp set features Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus and a little shepherd! Plus adorable animals, accessory stamps, sentiments and more with a total of SIXTEEN stamps for an endless combination of design possibilities!

  
 
For my card, I decided to create a little scene using the adorable Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus.  I masked in the little donkey and camel and stamped the moon and stars for a little night-time background.  I chose some earthy Christmas papers and colored my image to match using Copic Markers.  Then I layered several of the patterned papers and die cut my little scene using an oval die. I popped it in the middle using foam tape and added a ton of paper flowers to create a little arrangement.  A couple of gold pearls and twill ribbon top it all off.

CC Designs October Release Day

 
 
 
Today is RELEASE DAY for all of the new OCTOBER Products at C.C. Designs!! As you have seen from our Preview Days, this release revolves around Christmas (which is right around the corner folks)!! For the month of October, we have 13 new character stamps, 4 dies, a Holiday Background stamp set, and a new Sentiment set.

For my card, I used the adorable Peppermint stamp and Holly Jolly Sentiments Set! Isn't she just the cutest????  I love the little peppermint candy in her hair... too cute!  To start, I chose some whimsical holiday paper with pinks and reds.  I though it would be perfect for a candy cane image.  Then, I colored my image to match and matted it with a piece of colored cardstock.  Next, I stamped my sentiment which coordinates perfectly with this image.  Finally, I layered several sheets of patterned paper, die cut a circle, and popped my image on top with foam tape.  Some die cut swirls, glitter snowflakes, and ribbon top the card off.

CC Designs October Release Preview Day #1

 
Hello!  Today is Preview Day #1 for the October CC Designs Release!  I can't believe it's October already!  That means it's time to get started on those Christmas Cards.  Not to worry, CC Designs has you covered!  This month's release is all about Christmas!  Today, I'm featuring the adorable Elves Set!  Let me tell you, you are going to love it!  It's filled with adorable elves perfect for the Holiday Season!  I'm also featuring the NEW Holiday Tag Die which come complete with tag, a little nesting square for the inside and a sentiment strip!  Perfect for all those holiday gifts! 

 
For my card, I first created the little tag.  I die cut it out in some festive Doodlebug paper and then stamped and colored my image to match.  I cut the elf out with my Scan N Cut 2 and popped him on top of the tag using foam tape.  I chose an adorable sentiment from the NEW Holly Jolly Sentiments set and stamped it to the side of my little elf.  Then, I created the background.  I cut a couple sheets of patterned paper and layered them on top of each other and finished them off with a scallop boarder (which is actually a frame that I cut to fit).  Then, I popped my tag in the center with foam tape and added a couple of die cut tags to the top right corner.  Some bright enamel dots finish it off.
