Today I want to share the waterfall card I created with the cute Krafty Mice! ( it's currently on pre-order, but Kim will have more in the shop soon!)

I started with this idea that I wanted it to be the same mouse going step by step at designing a card to mail out!

Step 1 is designing the card!

then as they pull down on the black sentiment strip they go to the next step and the previous panel flips up.

Step 2 is add colour!

Step 3: Fussy Cut!

Step 4: Don't forget the glitter!

Step 5: Send the card!

It took me a while to get the hang of making one of these, and I nearly pulled my hair out, but I think it turned out pretty cute!

Here are all the panels in one photo

It's been such a fun release! I think all these sets are really fun to send out for Valentines, or any occasion!

Happy Krafting!

PS. You can see everything up close in the Live Release Replay on Facebook!!

Kraftin Kimmie January Day 3 Peek: So Punny!

Today is our final day of Krafty Peeks for the January Release

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

We are so excited to share a funny, punny set

by artist

Michelle Houghton called...

SO PUNNY!

This set is filled with adorable images and sweet puns - perfect to send to a friend anytime! And think about how cute they would be for Valentines Day!! 💓You can even add little faces for even more fun!

You'll notice this awesome set coordinates with the YOU'RE A DOUGH-ABLE stamp of the month set!

Check out SO PUNNY in so many amazing creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs! You'll also see the beautiful new stencils, GEO 1 and KRAFTY TOOLS (a layering stencil!!) along the way!

I chose the pears for today's project. I was feeling like I wanted a more muted elegant card for this one.

I started by painting the pear stamps with washes of watercolours, and then I cut them out.

I chose some P13 papers from my stash, and brown cardstock from my stash that I lightly inked with purple petunia to make the paper more of a plum colour.

I added a chipboard shape from my stash for the sentiment, backed the pears with a pretty emphemra piece in my stash, and added some krafty dots.

I really love how this one turned out! I will have a more punny/ goofy one on our Instagram hop, but I wanted to show you can make elegant ones as well!

Everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party TODAY! All the fun takes place in the Krafty Friends facebook group beginning at 2 pm ET! See you there!

Kraftin Kimmie January Peek Day 2: Krafty Goodness!

Welcome back to Day TWO of our January 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.....

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!
