KK Tinkerbell and MFT

Hi All,

Today is a very sad day for me.  It is my last post as a one crazy stamper designer.  I am excited to see the new team starting in January and wish Lora and the store the very best in the upcoming new year.  This was one of the best design experiences and I really enjoyed working alongside these wonderful, talented ladies!  I hope to join in some of the upcoming challenges and will be a lifelong customer!  Thank you so much for all of your wonderful comments along the way on my creations! 

Here is my last creation:

 

 

 I used the adorable Kraftin Kimmie Tinkerbell and the My Favorite things dienamics and sentiment on the inside (below)

 

Non Holiday Kraftin Kimmie

Hi All,

I had a birthday card to make and I wanted it to be as far away from holiday colors as possible!  Used the adorable Rosabelle from Kraftin Kimmie.

Hope you enjoyed the non-holiday post!  Have a wonderful week!

Kraftin Tinkerbell

Hi All!

It has started to get super cold here!  Of course California cold is pretty mild but it hasn't helped that I have had that nasty cold that has gone around!  I have had it for over a week.  Usually I can just take a day and work through it but this one has had me down since last Thursday!  I did find time to play with the adorable Kraftin Kimmie Tinkerbell though.

I did keep it pretty simple and it is hard to tell in the photo but I added some really pretty shimmer to her wings.

Enjoy this months challenge of anything goes!



 

Rosabelle

Hi All,

I am trying to get whatever summer colors I can before the fall and Christmas colors take over my stamp table!  I used the super cute Rosabelle from Kraftin Kimmie.  I used the star circle Nestabilities.  I also used the Loopy Bloom and the open edge Dienamic from My Favorite Things.  This is one of my all time favorite images because I absolutely LOVE coloring her!

Only a week left to play in the months One Crazy Stamper challenge!  Have a great week!

Gadget Girl

Hi All!

I carved out some crafty time and I really needed it!  I used the adorable Gadget Girl from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.

I loved coloring her!  Of course when I use copics as my coloring medium I ONLY use Memento Tuxedo Black.  I have this in the regular size pad and the small one as well.  This way you get the right amount of coverage no matter what you are stamping.  I am thinking she is going to be a thank you card.

Only a few more days to enter this months chalenge!

Flower soft product focus

Hi All!  I have a fun product focus for you today!  One of my favorite products:  Flower Soft!

I am going to show you a cute trick with this super fun product!

First stamp your image.  If I am coloring with copics I ALWAYS use Memento Black.  I also always cut the paper into quarters so I have room for whatever I decide to do with the image.

Then color the image with whatever colors you look.

Here are the copics I used for this image.

I used the large circle nesties to cut out my image.  I emboss the image and then I sponge around the edge.  Using a pencil I draw in a line for a border for the flower soft.

I decided to use Raspberry fizz ultra fine because i loved the color!  If you want more of a shag then use regular flower soft.  Also the ONLY adhesive I use with flower soft is the flower soft adhesive because it comes out white and can be easily manipulated with your finger and it dries clear.

I use the pencil to break some up in the lid.  it is easier to sprinkle on that way.  Once I sprinkle it on I push it into the glue and try to fill any holes that may appear.

This is Kraftin Kimmie's Betty on her shag rug.

Finish up you card and you are finished!  I used Lacy circles nesties to compliment the embossed circle nesties.

Hope you liked the fun tutorial.

Have a great week!  And you still have time to enter our birthday challenge!

Eva Calendar page

Hi All!

It feels like forever since I have posted!  I am keeping this a little short because there wasn't much to this project!  I ended up giving away the first January Page I did and I made another one for myself.  Although I don't have very many pictures for January so I need to get better at taking photos!

I used the adorable Kraftin Kimmie Stamp Eva.  She is sooooo much fun to color and was a had to have once I saw her on the One Crazy Stamper Store site!  She is just so SASSY!

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Happy Stamping,

Bluesy Charlotte

Hi all!  wow things have been insanely busy here!  Hope you guys are able to take a moment and breathe. 

Another quick and simple card for you guys!  I love having these cards on hand for birthdays and thank you cards because I always need those.  This is one of my ALL TIME favorite stamps by Kraftin Kimmie!  Charlotte.  I was able to break out my sewing machine which I hope to have more accessable for future projects!  I love what the little bit of sewing does to a project!

Hope you guys have a wonderful crafty week and see you next week!

Kraftin Kimmie growin'

For some reason it is baby season with my family and friends so I have needed a lot of baby shower cards and thankfully I had this GREAT image in my stash!  I love her and she is so sweet to color!

This is Kraftin Kimmie Caroline.  I used Oval Nestabilities in both regular and scalloped and small and large.  I also used some fabulous red rhinestones!

Hope you all enjoy today's card!!!  Also, you have until tomorrow to enter this months fun fall/Halloween challenge!!!

Kraftin Kimmie Tutorial

Hi All!!!  I have a super cute tutorial/altered project to show you!!!  I was very nervous about altering this because I am so new to altering stuff and I have held on to this cork board (that I found at the Dollar Store) because I wanted the perfect project! 
I got all of these adorable images from One Crazy Stamper

OK so I started with just a simple cork board with a wood frame.

The size of the cork board frame was 12x 8.25.  I cut the paper a little less then that and played with the trimming until I could fit it.

This is what it looks like when it fits in and I slid it under the frame part.

I cut strips for the edge of the frame

I had to cut off corners so it would be easy to fold over

I used the one I cut to stencil lines on all of the other strips

 I used sticky tape and I placed the strips on the edge of the slits.  You may notice that the strips are longer and that is so I can fold it over for a clean look.

Here is a look of the sticky tape on the edge of the frame. Scor Tape was used!

I used some chipboard letters to place to do on the top and you can see how all the paper is folded over the edge of the frame.  I also used glue dots to place a strip of ribbon to be able to hang this. (you'll see this in the pictures below)  You also get a peek at my little list helpers.

 Here is the super adorable Tori!  And also a peek at how the ribbon looks!

 Here is Brigitte

 Here's Rosabelle.

 Here's Antoinette.

 Here's Agnes

 Here's all of them in the scalloped border that holds them all at the bottom.  This way I can change out my kimmies with what my mood is!

Hope you enjoyed the project!  I had a blast making it!  It was also way easier to do then I thought just time consuming but I love this hanging in my stamp area!

I'm late!!!! I usually like to have this post up super early but blogger had other ideas!!!  Well I needed a baby shower card really bad and after looking through my stuff I found this super adorable image from One Crazy Stamper:  Kraftin Kimmie Caroline.  She is currently on sale right now for such a great price!!!

Supplies will be added a bit later.....Have a wonderful, crafty day!

la la land.....Sweet Dreams

Sometimes there is a card that turns out better then you pictured it in your head!  this was definitely one of those!  I loved coloring this sweet image and I don't use very many circles and I love the cards I have been seeing with half circles!  Wanted to use different colors since I have been on a purple and pink kick lately and figured some nice soft greens, yellows and blues would be perfect!

I used the sentiment from kraftin kimmie Goldilocks!  I have to admit I go to that sentiment a lot! 

supplies:  embossing-cuttlebug embossing folder, scor pal, Stamps: Kraftin Kimmie Goldilocks sentiment and La La Land Sweet Dreams Marci, Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copics: (nightgown G82, G94, BV11 hair E55, E31, E30 Skin R20, E00 Bear E37, E35, E34 RV13 Other RV13, C5, C1

Getting Krafty with Agnes--Kraftin Kimmie

Woo Hoo I received some new goodies in the mail from Lora and I could not wait to play!  have you checked out the Kraftin Kimmie section of the store lately???  OMGosh there are some new fairies, and some fun girls that are just like us!!!  Some stuff is even marked lower then the super low prices that are already in place!  This is one of my absolute favorites and as soon as I saw her I HAD to have her....This is exactly who I want to be, well, except for hand mixing.  That is where my cherished Kitchen aid comes in handy.

Isn't she adorable!  I had this fun vintage looking scrap Design Paper in my stash and it has ingredients for a recipe so I HAD to use it.  Agnes is colored with copics (shocker, right?).  I finally upgraded my trimmers so it was a lot easier to trimming her.

Supplies:  Stamp--Kraftin Kimmie (Agnes), Copics--Sketch (R20, R29, E57, E47, E11, C1, Y21, C5, E34), Misc supplies in my stash

Jumping into Spring with Kraftin Kimmie Mae

I don't know about you but I am T-I-R-E-D of winter weather and ready for some fun in the sun.  What better way then start getting into the warm weather mode then to stamp an ADORABLE image like this one.  I of course colored her with my copics and used a fun charm that has been in my stash for years.

Hop you are braving the winter weather and you start seeing spring soon!  best wishes and happy stamping.

supplies:  Kraftin Kimmie--Mae  Copics--Sketch Nesties--Oval

Kraftin Kimmie Apple Love

Hi everyone!  Well I am ready for spring...or at least some warm weather.  Where I live we do have winter in the form of rain and 40-50 degree weather.  Tonight it is actually supposed to SNOW!!!  If it does I have the video camera charged so I can take the puppy out in it since he has never seen snow.  Snow here is a HUGE deal because the last time it snowed it was 1989.   So thinking about spring made me jump to soft colors and some happy, fun stamps and when I think happy and fun I usually run to my Kraftin Kimmies!

I wanted a circle-ish shape but have not broken and bought circle nestabilities (yet!) so I used my oval nestabilities to create my shape.  The sentiment is actually from the Kraftin Kimmie stamp Josephine.  I love how the sentiments are so versatile that you can really mix and match!

supplies:  Stamps-Abigail Apple and Josephine Copics-Sketch Accessories-Oval Nestabilities small and large, paper and pattern paper are from my overflowing stash.

Kraftin Kimmie Josephine

Have I said how much I love Kraftin Kimmie stamps?!?  They are SOOOO much fun to color.  I loved coloring this one and wanted to make a simple hearts kinda card. 

I love leaving the inside of my cards blank so I can add just the right sentiment when I need it.  This card might be a thinking of you or a birthday card since I seem to be hitting birthday season in my family!

Supplies: Stamps-Kraftin Kimmie (Josephine) Copics-Sketch, Design paper, button and twine from my endless paper craftin stash!
