Dandy Lion...a Kraftin' Kimmie Komeback!

It's time for a Krafty Komeback!!! As you know, lots of our rubber stamp sets have long retired and are not available for purchase anymore. Well, we've decided to re-release a few of your faves in clear!


Today we are re-introducing you to the gorgeous DANDY LION by artist Annie Rodrigue! She's just perfect for friendship creations, thinking of you cards, birthday projects, and lots more.

The Krafty Krew design team members and guests listed at the end of my post have created some fabulous projects to inspire you, so be sure to hop around! Then pop on over to the Krafty Shop because DANDY LION is NOW AVAILABLE for purchase!

It's also Frugal Friday and we've got FOUR of our fabulous sets on SALE 40% OFF! But only for the weekend and only while supplies last! 

I created a CAS card featuring Dandy Lion. She was stamped on Neenah paper in Memento Desert Sand Ink and coloured with Copics. I then added some white coloured pencil, white Sharpie paint pen and a little sprinkle of Glamour Dust glitter. This fun sentiment comes with the set.




Here's a look at the full set: 


As promised, here's the list for today's hop:
