Love is in the Air! And my 1000th post!

Well, welcome back for more fun and krafty challenges and much more with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!  Hope you can play along as we've got yet another great challenge for you to share your mojo! 

This week our hostess is TRACY and her challenge is called LOVE IS IN THE AIR!!  So create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin' Kimmie stamp with a lovey dovey theme!  Join us this week because we'd LOVE to see your KKS designs.

Hey, guess what?!  This is my 1000th post!  So hard to believe!  For this post I pulled out this super sweet set called Love Birds and made some clean and simple cards.  I stamped them on some Cryogen White cardstock and coloured them with my copics.  I love the shimmery look and feel of this cardstock - but my copics really bleed on it - so I don't tend to use it often.  I added some Doodlebug washi tape and a couple heart sprinkles and called it done!  These will be perfect for my kids teachers' to go along with a little valentine treat!




Don't forget we've also got our FRUGAL FRIDAY SPECIALS up right NOW!  Several of our fave stamp sets are on 25-50% OFF for this weekend only!! Go check 'em out!  Check out the wonderful creations by our Krafty Girls featuring this week's challenge!! If you join us and play along, you could WIN a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp!

Krafty Peeks - Once Upon A Time 4!

Welcome back to day TWO of our JANUARY Kraftin' Kimmie Peeks!  Today we are excited to share ANOTHER super cute new set by artist Cheryl Alger!!  Here comes another one.....FAIRYTALES!  We are sharing samples today featuring.......ONCE UPON A TIME 4. 

All the Krafty Girls listed below have lots of super CUTE designs to show you, so be sure to hop over to each of them! And while you're there, be sure to leave a comment because we are giving one away!  You could WIN one of the new FAIRYTALE! stamp sets!  {All of this week's winners will be announced at the online party on Saturday night!}

I coloured up Cinderella and matched her up to some older MME Valentine papers.  I gotta say - that I never colour my image without having first picked the papers - but I did with this one - and I think it turned out o.k.  I added some sparkle to her over skirt layer and her shoe with my Copic Spica pen. I also used a sparkly crystal button to mimic the shoe.  


Come on back tomorrow to check out MORE fun new stamps we have to share with you! And ALL the new JANUARY stamps will be available on Saturday night at the KKStamps Shop!!
