Welcome back to Day TWO of our January Krafty Peeks!

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

artist Michelle Houghton

and it's called.....

KRAFTY GOODNESS!

This adorable set features an assortment of creative Krafty supplies ready for you to make amazing works of "heart"!

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

For today's project, I knew I wanted to figure out how to colour a row of markers in rainbow order.

I started by dry embossing the background with the Geo 1 stencil on grey cardstock, for a neutral background.

I then cut the main marker panel with my sillhouette, and cut a rectangle big enough to put my sentiment into.

I repeat stamped the copics onto this panel, and coloured with my copic's in rainbow order (oops mixed up orange and yellow).

Lastly, I added a sentiment on a rainbow pattern inked strip, and added coordinating krafty dots!

You'll see more of our January 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!

Kraftin Kimmie January Peek Day 1: Krafty Mice!

Who's ready for lots of brand new Krafty goodies?!

It's time for our January Release Peeks to begin

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today we’re featuring an adorable addition to our mice friends,

and it's called.....

KRAFTY MICE!

These sweet little mice friends are back with their creative supplies and ready to get krafty!!

I chose to use the mouse with the paper hearts banner, for a sweet little trifold valentine.

I backed him with one of the alcohol glazed wood hearts I made at Christmas, and inked the Geo 1 stencil on a panel.

Using paper from my stash I added the other the panels to complete this card.

As you hop around the design team's blogs today you'll be able to check out KRAFTY MICE! in action in combination with a lot of our other new

Kraftin Kimmie Monthly Challenge 664: Winter, blue, or monochoromatic!

Good morning and welcome to our new

Monthly Saturday Challenge

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Are you ready for another krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing?

We've got some fabulous ideas for you

and can't wait to see what you create!

This month the challenge themes for you are:

WINTER,

BLUE,

MONOCHROMATIC

You can choose any or all - whatever inspires you!

I chose to use all 3 prompts for my card!

I started by stamping and colouring Skating Friends fox and squirrel.

I then, wanted to try and figure out how to make a skating pond, I used the Breezy Backgrounds to ink the pond. I added some dark ink to the sky and light blue to the bottom of the panel. I added some white gesso splatter, and a shimmer watercolour to the bottom panel.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed in white, added some clay snowflakes and a puffy heart.

I thought they looked like a cute quirky couple having a midnight skate!
