I used LOVE STORY SENTIMENTS for a Valentine's Day card. For the background, I sponged our Pretty in Pink ink over a white piece of cardstock. Next, I used our BEAUTIFUL BURLAP stencil with Purple Pansy ink. For the final ink layer, I used our HAPPY HEARTS stencil with Raspberry Rose ink. I spritzed some glimmer spray and tapped on a little stardust stickles while the heart stencil was still in place. The sentiment was stamped in Wicked Black ink on top of a white paper sponged with Pretty in Pink and Raspberry Rose.

Birthday Challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Good morning and welcome to another Saturday challenge 
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!


Our challenge this week is....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

I used our adorable Hip-Hippo-Ray stamp set for my card this week. I stamped the hippo in our Wicked Black ink and coloured her with Copics. I then masked the image and used our Sprinkles stencil along with the following Krafty inks for the background: Raspberry RoseMermaid MelodyCharming Chartreuse and Yummy Yellow. For a little pizzazz, I spritzed some glimmer spray over the stencil and edged the panel in Stardust Stickles. The sentiments are from the set and were stamped in Wicked Black ink. I also used some of our Rainbow Dots as accents.





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.
