IN A STITCH!

Good morning Krafty friends! I love adding stitching to a card and used to do it all the time. However, it's been a while since I pulled out my sewing machine, so figured it was a great opportunity to make it our challenge theme! You could always add faux stitching if that's more to your liking! I paired this pretty vintage paper with a watercoloured giraffe from Wild World. I also used Marvellous Mocha ink around the paper edges.

June 2021 Release Peeks at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps...Day 4

 

   Today is our final day of Krafty Peeks for the June Release

 at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!




We are so excited to share a fantastic set

by artist

Michelle Houghton called...

LOOKIN' SHARP!


This set of potted plants will have your projects looking green and serene! The sentiments are so wonderfully fabulous and sure to bring a smile to even the most prickly friend!!


I absolutely love this set. The succulents are gorgeous and the sentiments are perfection...they make me chuckle every time I read them. I created a background panel by embossing some white cardstock with the Bouncing Bubbles Stencil. While the stencil was still in place, I sponged over it with our brand new Ocean Opulence ink in combination with Precious Pink and Soft Sage. I then stamped two of the plants in Totally Taupe ink on Arches watercolour paper and painted the images. The sentiment was stamped in Wicked Black ink.

Here's a look at Ocean Opulence ink and the Bouncing Bubbles Stencil:
