KKS October 2024 Sneak Peeks Day 4

Good morning and welcome to our
FINAL day of 
October Krafty Peeks!

Today we are revealing our last stamp set which will be releasing tomorrow afternoon at 1pm ET along with all our other stamp sets and stencils!

Today we are revealing...a Krafty Komeback!! 


It's called HAVE AN ICE DAY!!
And it was originally released as rubber in 2013!


For those who are new around these parts, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is celebrating 15 years this fall so we have a lot of retired images most people have never seen before!  (And there are lots of requests for past stamp sets!) So once in a while we bring a set back and this one will be back this weekend!

I made a tag featuring the skiing chap from this set.  He was coloured with markers.  (Little disclaimer... the dimensions of my image may be a little different from the new clear set as I used my old rubber version.)




Join us tomorrow (Saturday) at NOON ET in the Krafty Friends Facebook group as we celebrate our FINAL release of the year!
All FOUR of the new stamp sets and TWO new stencils will drop at 
1pm ET in the Krafty Shop!

Day THREE of our October Krafty Peeks!!


Today we are thrilled to share a super fun winter themed stamp set by artist Neda Sadreddin called FLAKY FRIENDS!!

September 2024 Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Mid-Month Inspiration Post

Good morning and welcome to the 

September Mid Month Inspiration post for the

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Monthly Challenge!
 

Every month we post a brand new challenge with a choice of themes to choose from. Then mid-month, we share an inspiration post with even more creative ideas by our design team! 

This month our challenge themes for you are:

Back to School/Primary Colours and/or Circles!

You can choose any of the themes or combine them...it's totally up to you.
Enter as many times as you like all month long but they must be
 new creations. You are welcome to use any stamp, however, using Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp products will earn you double entries!

I chose to work with primary colours, but I also think my card could loosely work with back to school if you consider the paintbrush and paint as school art supplies. To create the paint splatters, I used our Splish Splash stencil with three Krafty Inks: Summer Sunshine, Ruby Red and Sparkling Sapphire. After inking the paints splats, I added a drop shadow with a grey marker and some white highlights to give them a bit of dimension. I also covered them in glossy accents. The paintbrush is from our Krafty Goodness stamp set (coloured with markers) and the sentiment is from our Krafty Mice set. Both the sentiment and paintbrush were popped up on foam tape.  




*Our Monthly Challenges are now combined with the 
Skrappy Challenge (first Tuesday of the Month)
and the Christmas Challenge In the Krafty Friends FB group! So feel free to enter any or all of these - the monthly prize is a $20 voucher to the Krafty shop!

Inspirational Wednesday-Butterfly Dreams at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

             

Welcome to another Inspirational Wednesday,
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!


This week, I've created a project featuring 

Butterfly Dreams.

Enjoy 40% OFF this sweet set all week long!



I inked up a background using our Daring Diamonds stencil and four of our Krafty Inks including Pretty in PinkRaspberry Rose (our ink of the month), Purple Pansy and Festive Fuchsia. The butterflies and sentiment were stamped in our Wicked Black ink. Finally, I used some gold ink to paint portions of the wings and then splattered the panel with the same ink.
