My card features three stamp sets: GOOD IN THE WOODS (Lucas), GOOD IN THE WOODS ACCESSORIES (BBQ) and that bright cheery sun from HERE COMES THE SUN. I stamped Lucas and the BBQ in our Wicked Black Ink, masked them, and used our new Radiant Rainbow stencil for the background. Inks used in the rainbow include: Ruby Red, Pumpkin Patch, Summer Sunshine, Charming Chartreuse, Sparkling Sapphire (currently on sale!), Purple Pansy and Gorgeous Grape. The rest of the scene was done in copic markers.

We have two new stencils that coordinate perfectly with our lovely new stamp sets and they are....
RADIANT RAINBOW and SUMMER SUNBEAMS!


NOTE: Summer Sunbeams was apparently on everybody's wish list because it SOLD OUT quickly!! You can still follow the above link to the store  to add your name to an email list to notify you when this stencil is back in stock.



And lastly we have the perfect set of new Krafty Dots for this fabulous release!
They are....RAINBOW BRIGHT krafty dots!



Also we have a SPECIAL PROMOTION going on for this weekend only called SHARE THE KRAFTY KINDNESS!  As so many people around the world have been affected one way or another by today's health concerns, Kimmie would like to send her heartfelt appreciation to everyone doing their part!  Doesn't matter if it's a big part or a small part, we are all in this together!  For every Perfect Peony stamp set you purchase this weekend Kim will be adding another set to your package for FREE!  Perhaps you have a krafty friend who is out of work right now or maybe you know someone who is struggling with isolation.  This set is a friendship set and I'd love for you to give it away to someone of your choosing to Share the Krafty Kindness!  This promotion will run until Sunday night while supplies last.   

Speaking of the Perfect Peony stamp set , I used this gorgeous flower for my hop card today. I stamped the peony on Arches cold pressed watercolour paper and embossed it in black. The flower was done in the following Daniel Smith watercolour paint: Neutral Tint, Quinacridone Purple, Rose of Ultramarine and Quinacridone Magenta. The background was done mostly with Daniel Smith paints (Green Serpentine Genuine, Olive Green, Undersea Green and Neutral Tint) plus two M. Graham colours (Sap Green and Nickel Azo Yellow). The sentiment from the set was stamped in Wicked Black Ink. I also edged the paper in stardust stickles.



Now head on over to the Krafty Shop and have a look around!
Happy hoppin' and happy shoppin'!

We're kicking off the krafty fun with an ADORABLE set from artist BECKY PEARCE and it's called.....

UP, UP and AWAY!


What a fabulous and uplifting set of sweet images and sentiments to send to special people to let them know you're thinking of them, especially right now!
It's a 4x6 stamp set featuring several main images, some accessory stamps and some awesome sunshiney sentiments!


As you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs today you will see the UP, UP AND AWAY stamp set in action in combination with our all of our other awesome new MAY Kraftin' Kimmie products!

These ones are called RAINBOW BRIGHT DOTS!


Here's my card featuring Up Up and Away. I used our new SUMMER SUNSHINE ink to sponge over a base layer and then used the SUMMER SUNBEAMS stencil combined with Morning Marigold ink to create a simple background. I stamped one of the elephants on Neenah cardstock and coloured him with copics. I paper-pieced the hot air balloon, adhered it all the the background, added one of the sentiments in Wicked Black ink and edged the paper in stardust stickles.
