So, here's what I created! 

 

 

So, I've just started planning and I've been having so much fun decorating my planner with Kraftin Kimmie Stamps!  Here's a look at the layout before the pen. I stamped Angie on a sheet of sticker paper, colored it with copics, and cut it out using my Scan N Cut 2.  I think she turned out so cute!  Here's a closer look:

Kraftin Kimmie Saturday Challenge -Magic

Hello!  It's Saturday and that means it's time for another Saturday Challenge from Kraftin Kimmie!  This weeks challenge is all about Magic! 

 

For my card, I decided to use the adorable Rosie Fairy that I colored up for the Kraftin Kimmie Kolor Along a couple of weeks ago.  If you missed my video, you can see it HERE.  In order to create this card, I chose some fun pink and black patterned papers and then layered them in the background.  Then I "fussy" cut my image out using my Scan N Cut 2 and popped it on top of a die cut circle.  some die cut tags and enamel dots top it all off.

Hello! Hope you are having a great week so far.  Today I'm sharing a sweet little card using the New Little Pixie Lucky Clover stamp by CC Designs.  I just love how cute this little girl is with her horseshoe and clover.  Adorable!  For my card, I chose some fun patterned papers from Doodlebug.  I colored my image to match, cut it out using an oval die and popped it on the front of my card to add dimension.  The background is made up of various patterned papers layered together with some pleated ribbon and rhinestones.  To top the whole thing off, I added a few clover 3D stickers.  And there you have it, one lucky St. Patrick's Day card!

For my card, I took some inspiration from Pinterest and created a little city scene using a die I had from MFT.  I colored my image with Copics and then used my Scan N Cut 2 to "fussy" cut him out.  I popped him on top of the card using some foam tape and then I added some punched stars, a moon, and my heat embossed sentiment.

Kraftin Kimmie Release Preview #3- You're My Hero

 

Welcome to Day THREE of the February Krafty Peeks

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!...

ALL of the new stamp sets you've been seeing all week will be releasing on Saturday afternoon at the LIVE ONLINE RELEASE PARTY! I hope you can join us for all the fun, beautiful cards, giveaways and more!
Today we are sharing a studly new stamp set by our incredible artist, Annie Rodrigue! These guys are super macho and handsome, wouldn't you say?? It's YOU'RE MY HERO!
This fantastic set has TWO awesome main images plus FOUR coordinating sentiments!
 

 

 

For my card, I chose to work with this hunky fire-fighter!  First I colored my image using Copic markers and then fussy cut him using my Scan n Cut 2.  Then, I decided to try my hand at stencils (I've never used a stencil before).  I used some distress inks to create this brick wall and then cut it out using a circle die. I popped my image on top using some foam tape for dimension and added a little die cut fire to the side.  I stamped my sentiment, added some enamel dots, and a little punched flag to the corner.  I really love how this turned out and I think I'll be using more stencils in the future.  It was much easier than I was expecting :)
