I had so much fun colouring up our new Flaming Holidays stamp set with some Aqua and Auburn colours! 

To match my colour palette I inked up the latest layering stencil Holiday Ornaments with Rich Rust and Aqua Adventure, then added cookie dough stencil butter to add some shimmer.

Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peek October Release Day 1

 Who's ready for some brand NEW Krafty Goodies?

It's time to bring you NEW stamp sets and layering stencils

from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

In case you haven't heard, we have moved the releases to every other month but the same number of wonderful products!

So we will be sharing FOUR new stamp sets (including a Winter Krafty Komeback) and TWO new sets of stencils over the course of this week!

Today we are SO excited to kick things off with these fiery dragons and naughty elves from artist Sabrina van Vloten called 

FLAMING HOLIDAYS!!  

As you head out on today's Krafty Hop you'll get to enjoy lots of amazing creations from our Krafty Team featuring FLAMING HOLIDAYS and our totally unique new HOLIDAY ORNAMENTS layering stencil in combination with some of our other incredible products such as our Krafty Kolours Hybrid Inks!

 

I adore Dragons! If asked what are my favourite animals it’s red pandas and dragons! (No one can tell me they are not real!)

I love that Sabrina created some mischievous dragons and elves for this set.

I created my background using our new stencil with Lavish Lilac, Purple Petunia, Soft Sage, and Lovely Lagoon. I then took the second layer and added Nuvo Glimmer paste to the ornaments. 

I coloured up the stamp with Copics and gel pens to match my pattern paper. 

 

 Be sure to come back to the blog each day this week to see new products from our October Release and then join us on Saturday, October 12th at NOON ET in the Krafty Friends Facebook Group for our LIVE Release Party when all the new goodies will be available!

Day 2 Kraftin Kimmie Sneak Peek: Snowy Village!

   Welcome back to Day TWO of our November Krafty Peeks!

Are you excited about what you've seen so far!?  Are you ready for more?

I hope your answer was yes because we've got more fabulous fun for you today!

The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from 

artist Michelle Houghton

 and it's called.....

Snowy Village! 

These lovely holiday homes and village accessories are perfect to build wonderful winter scenes on your cards and scrapbook pages! 

 Check out Snowy Village and our new stencils in so many awesome creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  

For todays Peek I decided to keep it simple. I stamped the houses across from one another, then accessorize each house with some trees, lights, and the mailbox.

I then decided on a colour combo of fuchsia, teal, and green Copics.

I added white gel pen for my snow, then added 2 sentiments from the set using Berry bold and Lovely Lagoon 

You'll see more of our November goodies all week, and then everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party on Saturday at 2 pm ET in the Krafty Friends facebook group!

Here is some inspiration from our Design Team using the adorable Toasty Wishes stamp set!

I must admit I’m not a traditional red and green fan as I think I see so much of it at Christmas that I’m sick of it.

I do love Teal/ aqua and red though, so this makes my heart much happier.

I used Granite Grey ink with the Brick Wall Stencil to add a wall behind the fire place. 

I also stamped the sentiment in Crisp Crimson. 

Completed the card with stickers from my stash and pattern paper. 

We hope you're as excited as we are about the 

November Stamp Of The Month - Toasty Wishes!!

Happy Krafting!

For my project for the blog hop I really wanted to make a card for the September Christmas challenge. Sabrina shared this beautiful colour combo, and the prompt is Christmas Critters. 

I really focused on the soft colours of the colour combo and it really made me happy! 

I used the ink of the month: Bashful Blush and Mostly Melon to create the beautiful pinks in the colour combo over some cream cardstock. I stenciled with the new Let It Snow Stencil and some pearl white stencil butter. 

I stamped the fairy riding the lynx in the Bashful Blush to colour in a soft no line look! 

I love that I can use my Kraftin Kimmie stash to create a card in any colour combo I would like. No more worrying about matching pattern paper to a colour combo! 

I have one more card to share with this stamp set that will be posted for our instagram hop on Wednesday! I hope you will check it out!

Happy Krafting!
