   Good morning krafty friends!

It's December, and that means it's time for a brand new
SKRAPPY CHALLENGE

with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!


 The theme of course is ANYTHING BUT A CARD!

For this challenge you can make anything that strikes your fancy....except a card!
So design a new scrapbook page, bookmark, tag, altered item, planner page, art journal, ATC cards, etc. 


Just make sure to include some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products and make sure it's a new creation!  As soon as we have at least five people playing along, we'll be giving away a $10 gift voucher to the krafty shop as the monthly prize! 
 
 I used a canvas board with a magnetic backing to create this wintery mixed media piece featuring Caroling Cuties. Those who attended our in person fall retreat this year may recognize this canvas as one of the projects we did in my class.

Kraftin' Kimmie 2022 Advent Calendar- Day 2!

Welcome to the 2022 Kraftin' Kimmie Advent 

Calendar Reveal...Day 2!


This year, Kimmie had a fantastic idea to put together an Advent Calendar featuring 12 amazing stamps! Now this set was a preorder, so if you missed out you'll have to beg her to do another next year lol. For those who got in on the preorder, you have received a fun package of individually gift wrapped stamps, numbered one through twelve. How many of you managed not to peek?? lol  

Each day, one of the designers will be live in the Facebook Group at 10:00 am EST to reveal the stamp set for that day...so much fun! Additionally, after the live video, some of the other designers will be sharing projects they also made with that day's stamp set.


Today, was my turn to host a live video to reveal the second stamp set, PEACE, LOVE AND PAWS! You can catch the replay on the Facebook group to watch me colour this adorable pup in Copics.




Tune in tomorrow to see who will be revealing the stamp for Day 3!
