Last Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge for 2013!
This week our hostess is .....Kimmie!! And her challenge is a FUN SKETCH!! So create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp that is inspired by this sketch!!! Sounds fun!! Join us this week because we'd LOVE to see your KKS designs. We hope you can play along for your chance to WIN some Kraftin' Kimmie rubbah!!!
Did you hear about our new SHARE to WIN challenges?? We introduced the new WONDERFUL WEDNESDAYS a few weeks ago, so go HERE to get all the information and play along with us!! Now you have MORE chances to play with your Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and more chances to WIN!! And the current WW challenge is open for THREE weeks over the holidays!
Also here's a little secret....we'll be having our Annual BOXING WEEK SALE starting on December 26th!! So if you happen to get a little $$ for Christmas, here's the perfect way to spend it! On Krafty goodies for YOU!! Almost EVERYTHING will be on SALE!
I had to take the opportunity to squeeze one last Christmas card in for 2013. I love Christmas images, and this gorgeous angel Felicity is one of my absolute favourites. I also did the card in my favourite style, vintage. The papers are MME from last year. All edges were distressed and sponged with gold paint and Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I ordered some Frantage embossing powder after seeing so many of my friends use this awesome product on their projects. I also ordered a heat gun...believe it or not, I didn't own one until now. I know, crazy! I used both Shabby White and Aged Gold. I also used some fun new goodies from my friend Jenny...thanks so much Jenny!! She sent me some awesome vintage brads and a package of fun wooden embellishments along with some other fun items...not to mention a beautiful handmade card. Feeling blessed! I coloured the wooden holly sprig with copics and painted the word JOY in gold paint. A bit of crocheted trim and Stardust Stickles for the wings finished it all off.
Make sure to check out the wonderful creations by our Krafty Girls and Guests featuring this week's challenge over at the KKS Blog!! If you join us and play along, you could WIN a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp!
Thanks for stopping by!

This set includes several penguin images along with several coordinating sentiments. They're perfect for cards, tags, scrapbook pages, gift packaging...so many great possibilities! The paper is some old My Mind's Eye. I added a Maya Road chipboard snowflake that was painted white and then coated with Glamour Dust. The "snow" in the image is Polar White Flower Soft. To finish it off, I added a bit of baker's twine and some dollar store jingle bells.

First of all, I need to apologize for posting a sub-standard photo. I was unable to use a proper camera before this post was due to go live, so I had to resort to using my phone...I'll update with a much nicer photo later. The pinks really do match MUCH better in real life and the coloured images are rather washed out. I really need to install an editing program on my phone. :S My card features stamps from two of the sets we're previewing today. The main image of the bird on the branch is from Love Birds. I also used one of the hearts from the Sew In Love set...it actually has text in the centre of the heart, but I selectively inked only the decorative border and stamped that on the music note design paper. Oh, the papers are all from Bo Bunny Love Letters (the papers included in the November Krafty Kardmaking Kit!). The sweet pair of lovebirds is also from the Sew In Love set.
All the Krafty Girls listed below have lots of super FUN designs to show you featuring these ADORABLE new sets, so be sure to hop over to each of them!

November Krafty Kardmaking Kits!!
Kimmie has designed a Krafty Kardmaking Kit with everything you need to make SIX awesome cards AND have some goodies leftover to whip up some extras! Included in the kit are coordinated patterned papers, cardstocks, envelopes, sweet heart shaped doilies and several different types of embellishments including adhesive pearls and heart charms. With the November kit, you’ll also receive YOUR CHOICE of one of our gorgeous $8 stamps!!
Here's a breakdown of the contents of this month's kit:
- Six 6x6 black cardstock bases (precut and prescored) featuring Bazzill cardstock
- Six 6.5 x 6.5 square white envelopes
- Twelve 6x6 patterned papers – 2 of each of 6 different designs featuring the Love Letters collection by Bo Bunny!
- 8 6x6 coordinating coloured cardstock sheets (pink, cream, teal, red) featuring Bazzill Card Shoppe 100 lb Cardstock and regular Bazzill
- 3 yds of May Arts red wrinkled seam binding ribbon
- 3 yds of white lace trim
- 6 sweet heart shaped doilies
- 1 pkg of pink adhesive pearls and several heart shaped charms!
- YOUR CHOICE of any $8 stamp from ANY of our lines of stamps....including the new ones!!
Additionally, our Krafty Girl design team has taken ONLY what's found in this kit (plus their own white cardstock, ink and colouring medium) and created SIX amazing card samples for you (you'll get to see them all as you hop around the links at the bottom of this post)!!! With this kit you'll receive a gorgeous colour handout, emailed directly to you, featuring pictures of the six cards PLUS some extras and the sketches to go with each creation!! It couldn't be any easier!!
Your Krafty Kit will be shipped in a sturdy box so that your goodies are nice and safe!! The VALUE of each kit is over $32 but our price this month is $25!! Shipping in Canada and the US is $12 PLUS when you order the kit, we are offering FREE additional shipping on anything else in the shop that you order at the same time! So go ahead and load up with paper pads, ezmount, more stamps etc. because the shipping is covered! All your goodies will be shipped together in a box for only $12.

And this fantastic kit will be released on Saturday night at our LIVE online release party starting at 6:30pm EST on our facebook page, along with all of our new stamps being previewed this week!! We hope you'll join us for all the fun!
As mentioned earlier, six of us Krafty Girls divided one of the November kits up to give you an idea of what all can be made from just one kit! My sample features the gorgeous Rose...if you fancy her, you could choose her as your $8.00 stamp to be included with your kit! I trimmed by black card base down from 6"x6" to 5"x5" so that I could use those scraps for some die cut embellishments. The decorative black border was cut with Spellbinders Parisian Accents and the flourishes are an MFT Die...I just cut out select curls from the flourish die as my cardstock strip was skinny. The lace surrounding the image is included in the kit. I cut a larger oval out of pink cardstock for matting the image. However, in order for the lace to be more visible, I coloured the pink cardstock with a black marker...an easy way to create your own black cardstock where needed. ;) The little metal charm part of the kit. OH! I've include a SNEAK PEAK of a set we'll be unveiling over the next few days called Sew In Love! See that teal button?? That's actually a stamp from this fabulous new set. I stamped it on patterned paper, added a bit of shading, used a white gel pen on the stitching and then covered the button with Glossy Accents. You're going to LOVE the Sew In Love set when it's revealed during previews this week! I sponged around the image with Antique Linen and Spun Sugar Distress Inks. I also used Black Soot Distress Ink on all paper edges and used my scissor edge to distress the paper.
Here's a picture of the kit in it's entirety:
Ok, here's the list of all the Krafty Girls sharing projects created with the materials from just one kit:
Would you like to see what our KraftyGirls made with JUST the contents of ONE of our new Krafty Kard Kits???? Hop around and check out their creations!!
