Just one More Page


Welcome back to another month of Skrappy Fun
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!



We challenge you to make Anything BUT a Card.



So that means bookmarks, gifts, scrapbook pages, journal art, planner pages, tags, boxes...pretty much anything that includes a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp . Make sure it's a NEW creation!  As soon as we have at least five people playing, we'll be giving away a PRIZE...one lucky krafter will WIN a $20 gift voucher to the krafty shop!


You have a whole month to play along until 
Monday, November 25th at midnight EST.
Also be sure to share your creations on the Krafty Friends facebook page because we LOVE to see your stuff!


I made a bookmark with a simple watercolour background and a sentiment stamped in Wicked Black Ink from the JUST ONE MORE PAGE stamp set. I love being able to take a sentiment from a set and making it the focus of the project. I glittered the edges of the bookmark with stardust stickles in the style of Krafty Girl Brigitte! I also added a bit of texture with our Wonky Chevron stencil and Lovely Lagoon ink.

Solid Holiday...a Kraftin' Kimmie Sneak Peek

Welcome to day 2 of the
OCTOBER 2019 release for
Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!


Today we have another holiday set by our fabulous
artist, Melissa Baker-Nguyen called.....
SOLID HOLIDAY!



Such a lovely assortment of solid festive images.  They can be used as accessory images on your creations, on tags, bags, stamped in coloured inks, create patterned papers...so many possibilities!


I created two small tags featuring some of the stamps from SOLID HOLIDAY. I combined our new PERFECT PLAID stencil with the deer head for a more masculine tag. Krafty inks used include Wicked Black, Granite Grey, Berry Bliss, Mossy Meadow and our brand new STORMY SKY. I also used a couple of red dots from our FESTIVE DOTS. The tree tag was created using our Krafty Scenery stencil for the hills and a variety of inks including Bubbly Blue, STORMY SKY, Charming Chartreuse, Mossy Meadow and Marvelous Mocha. Both tags were trimmed in stickles. The "ornaments" on the tress are little dollar store gems.



Check out Solid Holiday in action as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs today. Be sure to leave some love at each stop because I'm going to give away some krafty $$ to a lucky commenter!

You'll see MORE of our brand new goodies over the next couple of days of Krafty Peeks and everything will be released at our LIVE Online Release Party in the Krafty Friends facebook group on Saturday, October 19th at 2pm EST.

Autumn Colours at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Hello and welcome to another fun
Saturday Challenge
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!



I'm the hostess for this week's theme,
AUTUMN COLOURS!

I actually pulled out one of our winter stamps to use for this autumn challenge...I've always loved the versatility of our stamps! I selected the adorable raccoon from POLAR PALS and stamped him in TOTALLY TAUPE INK on Arches cold pressed watercolour paper. The entire scene was painted in watercolours. This little guy is normally holding a snowball, but I painted it as an apple and added a stem to fit with our theme. 




Each Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week. You are welcome to enter as many times as you like with a new creations. You are welcome to use any stamp, however using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and products will earn you double entries.  Each submission will enter you into the monthly draw of a $40 gift voucher to the krafty shop!



Also don't miss our FRUGAL FRIDAY SPECIALS There is a selection of our fabulous clear stamp sets on SALE 40% OFF only for the weekend and only while supplies last!
