July 2021 Release Peeks Day 5 at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

I stamped two of the koalas in Wicked Black ink on Neenah paper and coloured them with Copics. I used our Semi-Circles stencil as a template to cut the patterned paper with the small leaves. I also created a larger leaf pattern on the teal paper by using the Luscious Leaves stencil and Lucky Limeade Ink. I added some doodled stitches around all the paper edges with a multiliner, applied some Krafty Dots and popped up the little koala in the lower corner on a wobble. The sentiment was also stamped in Wicked Black ink.

July 2021 Release Peeks at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps: Day 2

 

 Welcome back to Day TWO of our July Krafty Peeks!

The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from 
artist Neda Sadreddin
 and it's called.....

SHAKE YOUR PALM PALMS!


I started off by inking a panel of white cardstock with our Aqua Adventure ink. I then used two of our new products, the Luscious Leaves stencil and Lucky Limeade ink to create the fun pattern. I stamped the little boy from Shake Your Palm Palms in Wicked Black ink and coloured him with Copics. After fussing cutting him out, I adhered him to the card with my favourite Tombow Mono glue. From the July Add-On Bundle, I added some of the Aloha Sprinklets and the fun chipboard coconut drink (coloured in Copics with a Stickles coated umbrella). The sentiment from the set was stamped in Wicked Black ink.
