With Halloween just around the corner I thought this would be a fun to use this sweet Fortune Teller Gal from Kraftin Kimmie. I love her sweet outfit and crystal ball! I used Crackle Accents from Ranger on the ball and tried to hi-light her dress to match the sentiment. The image is coloured with Copics and background airbrushed.  Pattern papers are from My Minds Eye "Wicked" paper pad.

I've been so lucky to have a chance to play with the new Winter release stamps from Kraftin' Kimmie. This is another image I totally adore. The ground cover is actually a white glitter and for the falling snowflakes I used perfect pearls :) Coloured and airbrushed with Copic Markers!

Krafty Peeks Day 4 Hop & anything goes challenge!

Kraftin Kimmie New Winter release sample
 
 
Welcome back to another fun day of Krafty peeks with this sweet gal from Kraftin Kimmie!
 
I had so much fun making this card :) Embossed the hill with a snowflake design and airbrushed some snowflakes on the background of this scene (with Copic markers). If you don't have an airbrush I find using a stencil (or reverse part of the die cut) and lightly tap ink really gives the same effect! Other than that just a few pearls, buttons, embellishments  and lace to complete this card!
 
We are SO thrilled to share the newest set of FOUR stamps from Rachelle! Let's call it the CUDDLE UP collection!!! It includes stamps called.... CUDDLE UP & KEEP WARM, FRIENDSHIP IS
TWEET, SNOW MUCH FUN and SNOW WONDER!...

Anything Goes -- Kraftin Kimmie Challenge card!
 
Coloured with Copic Markers! Also used clear acetate for the window,  painted on snow, plus also added cotton for a little extra snowy effect. A few mini punches (heart and snowflake) for a finishing touch!

Krafty Preview Day Three



Welcome back to day THREE of our OCTOBER Kraftin' Kimmie Peeks!!! Today we are sharing TWO super cute new sets by artist Thais Narciso! They are called.......I'M SNOW HAPPY! and YOU'RE SO TWEET!


  I made this little birdhouse card with the new set from Kraftin Kimmie called You're  So Tweet! The birdhouse was hand cut using card stock and sketching out a house shape on paper plus added trim using a border punch.
Oh, and I cant forget ..... also added a circle to the center of this little guys new home to give it more of an authentic look.
The snow is the kind found at Christmas used for the village scenes, I've had my bag for years and I believe its called Buffalo Snow Fluries. Lastly a few finishing touches using bakers twine and white paint softly added to the flowers for a more snowy look!
