Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Krafty Peeks...Day FOUR!

Good morning and welcome to our
FINAL day of 
October Krafty Peeks!

Today we are revealing our last stamp set which will be releasing tomorrow afternoon at 1pm ET along with all our other stamp sets and stencils!

Today we are revealing...a Krafty Komeback!! 


It's called HAVE AN ICE DAY!!
And it was originally released as rubber in 2013!


For those who are new around these parts, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is celebrating 15 years this fall so we have a lot of retired images most people have never seen before!  (And there are lots of requests for past stamp sets!) So once in a while we bring a set back and this one will be back this weekend!

I love when a crafty idea comes together and this card turned out exactly as I envisioned!


I coloured the image with Copic markers and adhered it with Altenew Instant Dimension Foam Tape over a glitter die cut "slope".  Lukas is skiing through a birch tree forest inked with Sandy Shore Hybrid ink and the NEW Birch Tree Stencil.

I added some blue "sky" with Blue Bay Hybrid Ink and a little shading/details with Prismacolor Pencils on the tree trunks.


Enjoy checking out all the inspiration from the Krafty Krew!


Join us tomorrow (Saturday) at NOON ET in the Krafty Friends Facebook group as we celebrate our FINAL release of the year!
All FOUR of the new stamp sets and TWO new stencils will drop at 
1pm ET in the Krafty Shop!
See you there!

Kraftin Kimmie Stamps October Krafty Peeks...Day THREE!


 

Today's Krafty Peek features the super cute FLAKY FRIENDS


 and the brand NEW Birch Tree Stencil!

These friends are enjoying a lovely winter day at their favourite forest pond!


I applied Nuvo Glimmer Paste in Moonstone through the stneucl, once dry, I misted with Tim Holtz Distress Spritz, I believe in Weathered Wood but I forgot to write it down, lol.

I traced the pond shape from the Build-a-Snowman Stencil on the back of holographic card stock and hand cut for the skating pond.


I used a snow marker on the mittens and hats, popped up the skating snowman with foam adhesive built the pond scene in the lower half of the stenciled card front.

Come back tomorrow for the last day of Krafty Peeks and then join us Saturday, October 12th at NOON EST for the Live Release Party when all the new goodies will be available for purchase!

Enjoy hopping through all the Krafty Team Kreations!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps October Krafty Peeks...Day TWO!

  Welcome back!

Did you enjoy yesterday's Peeks?
Well, we are back with MORE Christmas fun!

Today we are spotlighting a new stamp set 
from artist Michelle Houghton called HOLIDAY POSTAGE!!


Who's totally into the postage craze right now?
I'm in LOVE with Michelle's images and sentiments that fit inside the frames!


I love this postage trend and as fun as these images are to colour, I think my favourite part of this card was adding the 5 cent and 1 cent stamps to complete the postage look, the perfect finishing detail.

The images are all Copic coloured and cut with my Scan n' Cut machine. I added the coloured images to the stamps with foam adhesive. I've used the postage die from the Gina K Designs Master Layouts 14 for the card front the stamps are adhered to.



I used a snow marker on the chimney and Santa's legs to add some texture as well and heat embossed the sentiment with gold embossing powder.


I finished embellishing with some Altenew Antique Gold Sequins and then layered the panel over a Spellbinders Brushed Gold panel and Glitter foam card stock.

As you head out on today's Krafty Hop you'll get to enjoy lots of gorgeous creations from our Krafty Team featuring HOLIDAY POSTAGE and also our incredibly festive new HOLIDAY ORNAMENTS set of layering stencils in combination with some of our other incredible products such as our Krafty Kolours Hybrid Inks!


Be sure to come back to the blog and/or the Krafty Friends facebook group each day this week to see all the new products from our October Release!  Then join us on Saturday, October 12th at NOON ET (note the time change from our usual) for our LIVE Release Party when all the new stamp sets and stencils will be available!!


Happy hoppin' and see YOU tomorrow for more awesome goodies!
