Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps January Scrappy Challenge

Hello and welcome to our January Scrappy challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

These challenges are a lot of fun and give you the chance to use your stamps in different ways. Your creations can be ANYTHING you would like to create but NOT a card! That leaves a lot of room for creativity, including calendar, planner pages, bookmarks, pocket pages and traditional scrapbook pages. You MUST use a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp for this challenge! You have all month to play along, so grab some stamps, pictures and let's get KRAFTY!

Our January theme is: ANYTHING GOES

I have had most of this calendar together since October, getting myself ready to get organized for the new year. Since I am going to keep this calendar as part of my scrapbook for the year, after the month is over, I like to go back and add a few reminders of some of the things that happened over the past month.

On my January calendar I used:

• Perfect Planner
• Love Chemistry
• One Cup at a Time
• Happiness is Reading (#reading, books)
• Itty Bitty Friends (sold out)

The paper is from Echo Park's Hello Winter collection.

Before the start of the month, I like to you the Perfect Planner set and mark out those days where I have confirmation of reminders, plans or information to remember.

Later in the month, if other things come up, it's fun to use some of the other great stamps you have in your collection to add a few reminders of fun and important memories. Baking with my kids and of course shopping for books (again)!

I hope you play along with this month's SCRAPPY Challenge! You can head over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps blog to see more creations from the Krafty Girls as well as the full details about the challenge.

Create any project (other than a card) featuring a Kraftin' Kimmie image. You have one month to play along and you can enter as many times as you like. Once the challenge reaches 5 entries, a random winner will be drawn.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps (Wonderful Wednesday) / Little Red Wagon (To Die For)

 

Welcome friends. Today I have a dual post for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and Little Red Wagon.

Did you know the Wonderful Wednesday challenges at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps are ANYTHING GOES? We love when you use a KKS (and it doubles you chance for winning), however all stamps are welcome for these challenges. Just create a NEW card, layout or altered item and share with us over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps blog or in our Facebook group (here).

The challenge runs for the month and there is a new chance to enter each Wednesday. At the end of the month a random winner will be chosen from the submissions and received a $20 gift card to the shop. Definitely worth playing for right?

This week at Little Red Wagon,

Susie is issuing the orders and her challenge this week is to DIE FOR! No really it's actually to DIE FOR. Susie wants us to use a die on our projects. Manual or die cutting machine your choice.

I am still having fun with a few altered projects and this week I decorated a small note book I picked up at Michaels (approx size 3x5 inches). I used the new ITTY BITTY FRIENDS from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. These mini images are great for these little projects.

My die cuts are simple. I used the Stitched Circles die (YNS) around my image and I created a matching bookmark for my notebook using a Bookmark die (YNS).

The paper used on the notebook is Simple Stories Enchanted.

I hope that you find time to join our TO DIE FOR challenge over at Little Red Wagon. While you are there stop over to the other Girlfriends blogs to see all of the inspiration they are sharing. Check out our Little Red Wagon Facebook group (here).

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Preview: Day Four - Itty Bitty Friends!

Welcome back to day FOUR of our May previews for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I am a tiny bit excited about today's preview. The images you are seeing are not new, however they are coming to you in a mini version. This new ITTY BITTY FRIENDS features seven Moonlight Whispers images, five of which are retired and no longer available.

These tiny girls will pack a BIG punch on any of your krafty projects. They are approximate 1.5 inches in size and come with a number of fun sentiments perfect for tags, mini cards, altered items and watermarks on your cards.

For our recent Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Spring Selfie Crop, I inked up all of the ITTY BITTY FRIENDS and made number of water bottle tags for our fabulous Krafty Croppers.  

The tags have a pocket to hold a package of drink crystals.

Thanks for dropping in today and please remember to leave a comment, then head along the preview hop. All of the Krafty Girls and Guests are listed below. Comment on each of the blogs because Miss Kimmie is giving away Krafty $ to a lucky stamper.

All of the May stamps will be available on Saturday after the release party.

Join Kimmie, the Krafty Girls, Guests and our Krafty friends as we party and celebrate the May release. The party will be on the Facebook events page (here) on Saturday May 16th at 6:00 pm (EST). Hope to see you there.
