No Lines Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Good Morning and welcome to another 
fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge


This week is my turn to play hostess and my challenge is...
NO LINES TECHNIQUE!

I made a little tag featuring one of the elephants from our Up, Up and Away stamp set. I stamped the elephant in Totally Taupe ink (my favourite ink for the no-lines technique!) on Neenah cardstock and coloured him in Copics. The sentiment from the set was stamped in Wicked Black ink. I added a bit of sparkle with some rhinestones and Stardust Stickles.

Stencil Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Good Morning and welcome to another 
fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge


Our Challenge this week is....
USE A STENCIL!


Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like.
These must be new creations 
and you are welcome to use any stamp however using Kraftin' Kimmie stamp and products will earn you double entries! 
The monthly prize is a $25 voucher to the Krafty shop!!! 


There are two ways to enter... you can link up your creation on the Kraftin’ Kimmie blog page AND you can upload your photo to the album in our Krafty Friends FB group.

I created a little canvas featuring PERFECT PEONY. I covered a dollar store canvas with a dictionary page (although, I went a little too thick with the paint, so the text didn't even show through lol), applied texture paste over our Nautical Netting stencil (currently out of stock, but add your name to the email list to notify you when it's back in stock) and Lots O' Dots stencil and then painted it in acrylics. After it was dry, I rubbed some gold paint over the stenciled areas to highlight the texture. I watercoloured the peony twice to pop up a layer to give it more depth. The sentiment is from the set (sorry about the glare...acrylics didn't photograph well under my light!) and I added some die cut leaves and rhinestones for finishing touches.



Also if you need a little extra inspiration or a jumpstart to your mojo, we have a new sketch each month! Feel free to use it any time!
