Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - June Challenge! Dad/Boy/Masculine and/or Outdoor Activities

 Good morning and welcome to our 
New Monthly Challenge
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Are you ready for another krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative mojo going? We've got some fabulous prompts for you and can't wait to see what YOU create!

This month our challenge themes for you are:

Dad/Boy/Masculine and/or Outdoor Activities

You can choose one theme or combine them!
Enter as many times as you like all month long.
It's a Choose Your Own Krafty Adventure!

June is the month to celebrate the men in our lives. 

Typically that means Father's Day, but the person

that I'm celebrating is my Brother-in-Law. 

I chose the Masculine theme for this month's 

challenge and made a birthday card for

his upcoming BIG birthday year.  

To create this card, I used the 

Charming Chevron stencil 

and the following gorgeous KKS hybrid inks:

Sandy Shores

Marvellous Mocha

Bubbly Blue

Designer Denim

Magical Midnight

The first thing I did was use a white cardstock

panel and sponge the different ink colors through 

the stencil using foam daubers. Then I lifted

the stencil and brushed the same colors over the 

top of what I had just stenciled. 

Since I wanted the die cut numbers to be

the same color as the chevron stripe.

I covered another piece of scrap white 

cardstock with the Magical Midnight ink and 

let it completely dry before using the number dies. 

I also made a custom sentiment strip panel

but covering another piece of scrap white

cardstock with the Sandy Shores ink. 

The sentiment is from the super fun 

Birthday Bash stamp set.   

I stamped the sentiment with

Marvellous Mocha ink but this time I was

impatient and didn't let the Sandy Shores ink

set in the paper as well as I should have so the 

mocha ink kind of sunk into the panel and

didn't stand out as much as I was intending it to.

I think the message is still quite clear and I 

have to admit that I quite enjoy teasing my BIL. 

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit me 

today.  I hope that you will take some time

this month to get crafty and share your

own fabulous creation with us.
