Layers...a Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge

Hello and welcome to another fun
Saturday Challenge!
Are you ready for some krafty fun?
We can't wait for you to play along and share your amazing krafty kreations!

This week's theme is....

LAYERS!

I made a tag featuring the You are Super stamp set. The image was stamped in Totally Taupe ink on Arches cold-pressed paper and done in watercolour paints. The background was sponged using Pumpkin Patch and Ruby Red inks with our Harlequin Stencil. The black border was created with a die from Stamp Anything. I added some wooden stars coloured with a copic marker and topped with stardust stickles. I also added a wooden speech bubble, topped it with design paper and stamped a sentiment from the set (the stars beside the sentiment are an accessory stamp from the set). Finally, it was finished off with a few enamel dots from our Krafty Basic Dots.

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like!  These must be new creations and you are welcome to use any stamp, however using a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp will earn you double entries!  Each submission will enter you into the monthly draw of a $40 gift voucher to the krafty shop!

We've also got a fun sketch to inspire you for the month of January!  You don't have to use it but it's there for you to use if you need a little kickstart....feel free to use it any time! 

 

There are two ways to enter our challenges!  1) you can link up your entries at the bottom of this post and 2) share your KKS creations in our Krafty Friends facebook group!  We can't wait to see what you create!

Don't miss our Frugal Friday Specials!!  There is a selection of our fabulous stamp sets on SALE 40% OFF but only for the weekend and only while supplies last!

Here's the hop list for today:

Happy krafting and thanks for visiting!

Here's my bookmark featuring YOU COMPLETE ME. I started by stamping the image in TOTALLY TAUPE INK and then watercoloured the girls. I then masked the image and used our new PRETTY IN PINK ink to sponge the light pink background. I then used our HAPPY HEARTS stencil to create the pattern with our RASPBERRY ROSE  and PURPLE PANSY inks. To finish it off, I added a sentiment from the set stamped in WICKED BLACK INK and a handmade tassel.
