Kraftin' Kimmie Previews - Twisty Carole!

Welcome to Day 4 (and the last day) of May's Krafty Previews!  Like what you see so far?  Well you're in luck, cause there's so much more to come.  Today we're showing you Annie's new Moonlight Whispers stamps - or as Michele likes to call them "Twisty Girls".  Thus the name of my post, since this stamp is called Carole.  Why Carole you ask?  For my friend Carole, and in her honour, I just had to use her stamp today (It was calling me actually.  I think secretly, each Carole stamp is like a horcrux - just like in Harry Potter, LOL).  Carole is one of the funniest (and funnest) people I know, so I coloured her up to match. 

I paired her with some My Mind's Eye Lime Twist papers - especially the chevron pattern, since I wanted to play along with the Chevron Chic Challenge over on the Moxie Fab World blog.  I pieced her shirt with the chevron paper as well as using it as my background.  




Do you recognize the layout as well?  Yup - it's this month's Sketch For You To Try!  I'm loving this sketch and definitely wanted to give it another go.  


To see more of Annie's Sporty girls, check out the Kraftin' Kimmie challenge blog for links to all the Krafty Girls and Guests.  And don't forget to leave comments as 2 random commentors will win free stamps!  All the new stamps will be released on Sunday May 15th (that's tomorrow!) so I'll see you back here for the release blog hop, k?  Have a great Saturday friends!
