Your Next Stamp Sketch/Colour Challenge # 17

Welcome to our sketch and colour challenge #17 at Your Next Stamp. Each challenge includes a sketch and colour options to inspire you.

Create a project based on the sketch and/or the colour combination. If you are working with the colours use at least 3 of the colours and you can add only neutrals.

This week I had fun with the sketch, once again putting my own spin on it. I flipped the sketch on the side and created a fun scene using the Word Critters - Spring Bird stamp and the Fence die. The sentiment is from the Jessica with Cupcakes set.

The paper is Cool Summer from Carta Bella. The cute clouds were perfect for my scene.

Inside the card I used Heartfelt Sentiments.

For our sketch and colour challenge # 17 you have until July 9th (midnight) to play along. You can see more inspiration and link up your projects over at Your Next Stamp.

One random participant will WIN a $15 gift card to the YNS store. If you feature a YNS stamp or die (must be the main focal point) you will receive and additional $5. When you use a YNS image there is also a chance of being selected as a YNS Top Pick. That's right, bragging rights for you and a fabulous badge to show off on your blog! Sounds exciting right? Ink up your stamps and show us your crafty stuff!

Have a fabulous and crafty Friday friends!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - August Preview Day 3 - Candy Corn Kisses

I hope you have been enjoying our preview week at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I have definitely enjoyed creating with these fabulous stamps. Although I am not ready for the end of Summer, this release has me excited about the fall and Halloween.

Today we are back with day 3 of the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps August new release previews. Today we are featuring a sweet treat and these are images from the artist Thais Narciso. This fun set is call CANDY CORN KISSES!

Since today is Saturday that also means it's time for a new challenge. Peggy is hosting the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge and her theme is ANYTHING GOES! Create a card, scrapbook page or altered item. You can use any companies image, HOWEVER if you use a Kraftin' Kimmie image you will double your chances to win. Sound fun? Of course it does. Remember to show off your Krafty designs over at the KKS blog. If you play along you have a chance to WIN a $10 gift certificate to use in the shop!

On my card today I am featuring our sweet Frankenstein as he heads out to score some candy.

I used Halloween paper from K & Company and created the candy filled bag by cutting down to size a brown paper bag. The mini paper bag was crinkled it up a bit, distressing with brown ink and then twine was added for the handles. As for the candy, well those are actual pieces of candy bar wrappers. Yummy. The things I do in the name of creativity! The black stars are Doodlebug and the fence die is from Your Next Stamp.

Of course the inside is decorated also. I love the sentiments with this set and I was able to use 3 of the 9 on my card.
