"Hay There!"...a Kraftin' Kimmie Sneak Peek!

Welcome back to day THREE of our MARCH Kraftin' Kimmie Peeks!!! The awesome new stamps just keep on comin'!!

We are SO thrilled to share the newest set of THREE images with matching sentiments from CHERYL! With the popularity of a set we released last year, we have continued on with the farm theme so today we're showing you the new set called DOWN ON THE FARM 2!!


This week our challenge hostess is TANGII! And her challenge is ANYTHING GOES!! So create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp with no restrictions! Use any sketch, any design, any embellishments because Anything Goes! Have some krafty fun and 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 NEW Kraftin' Kimmie rubbah!!!

Here's my card for the Anything Goes challenge. I chose to work with this sweet image of a boy with his horse...it's one of three main images from the Down On the Farm 2 set! I was so horse crazy as a kid. I took riding lessons and even worked on a couple of horse farms. I had subscriptions to horse magazines. I collected figurines. My sketch books were FULL of horses. I went to summer horse camps...I couldn't get enough of them.  I coloured the image with copics and added some addition shading with Conte crayons after the markers. The sentiment is part of the set. 


Here's what the complete set looks like:
