Hoop Hoop Hooray!

I would like to start off by saying that I am so very excited to have found out today that I have the opportunity to be an upcoming guest designer with the amazing Kratin' Kimmie stamps. I think I actually squealed with delight (at work) when I saw the announcement on the blog today.

I would like to say congratulations to all of the talented top 10 that have been given this fabulous opportunity.

This card is my 4th entry for the 5 different Krafty Bowl Challenges that started on Sunday and close tomorrow (Friday). I'm  not sure that I am going to be able to finish the last one, but I am going to try.

Challenge # 4 is "Something New".

For my card I used a Cheryl Alger design for Kraftin' Kimmie from the set called "Lulu on the Move". Although this is not a new set to Kraftin' Kimmie, it is a new set to my collection. I picked it up the other week as one of Kimmie's great Frugal Friday deals.

The paper is also one of my newer 6x6 purchases that I have been using a lot. It's called "Cool Summer" by Carta Bella. These colours are so fun and vibrant and the thought of summer is so much better than what I am currently looking at outside my window (which is snow, snow and more snow).

My close up picture of Lulu is a bit off. I am still working on my set up for the card and flash to get these shots right. I will figure it soon. Lulu is coloured with Copic Markers. I did add some of my Wink of Stella glitter to the hula hoop and her hair baubles.

Inside the card I added some of the Carta Bella paper and used a sentiment from the Stampendous set called "Birthday Wish".

Thank you for taking the time to view my card. Please come back soon.

Tweet Friendship

I am back featuring another fun card created for the Krafty Bowl challenge going on over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog. There were 5 challenges given out on Sunday and so far I was able to complete 3 on the weekend. I am still hoping to be able to finish the final 2 challenges.

This card is my submission for the Krafty Bowl Challenge # 2: Another Six Weeks of Winter. I really hope this is not the case because I don't think we have anymore room to put snow.

For this card I used another image by Rachelle Anne Miller for Kraftin' Kimmie called Friendship is Tweet. I went with a CAS card just to change up my usually style.

The image is coloured with Copic markers. For the snowflakes and little swirls I traced over the image with my Zig Two-Way glue pen and added white Glitter Ritz fine glitter.

Inside the card I added a sentiment from a Hero Arts set (CL351) "Friends". I also re-stamped the sweet little Kraftin' Kimmie image in a soft pink.

In case you were wondering the other challenges are:

Birthday Girl Flying High

This is my second post tonight. I have had a fabulous weekend crafting and I have made a number of fun card using Kraftin' Kimmie images. Today while many people were enjoying the Super Bowl, Kimmie was hosting her very own Krafty Bowl Challenges.

Over the next week, I am going to post the cards that I have completed for the 5 challenges. I've completed 3 cards today and I am so excited to have used so many fun images. I really am pleased how the cards all came out.

Krafty Bowl Challenge # 1 - "It's Ma Birthday".

First of all I would like to wish the fabulous Kimmie a very Happy Birthday, which I believe she said was on Monday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Here is my card for challenge # 1:

I used the super adorable image by Rachelle Anne Miller for Kraftin' Kimmie called "Birthday Girl". She went so well with the Carta Bella "Cool Summers" 6x6 paper. I cut out some of the clouds from the pattern paper to include around the image of the little girl flying with her balloon.

The image is coloured with Copic markers. To added a bit of sparkle to the balloon, I used my Zig two-way fine tipped glue pen to cover the balloon. Then I sprinkled the area with Glitter Ritz micro fine glitter.

Inside the card I re-stamped the Kraftin' Kimmie image and added a sentiment from Stampendous "Birthday Wish" set.

You can play along with this challenge and the other Krafty Bowl challenges until Friday February 7th. If you have Kraftin' Kimmie images to use that is preferred, however, if you don't own any, she would still love for your to join in the fun!

In case you were wondering the other challenges are:
