Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge

Hi, just a quick post with a card that I'm submitting for the current KK Challenge Feb '13.

Caroline

Catchy title right? LOL. I've used Caroline from Kraftin' Kimmie for this card made for a friend of a friend. I love the way it turned out! So soft and feminine. I used MME's Miss Caroline (Ha! I didn't catch that name thing before!) Howdy Doody. I paper pieced her gown and used the baby bottle from the stamp set for the centre of the flower. The flower was made using the Flower Trio from MFT die-namics and the Tag You're It and Dizzy Doily Duo are also MFT. Thanks for stopping by!

I've been MIA...

Hi! Yes, I've been missing for a while. It's not even that I'm not stamping, I just haven't been blogging...I have a whole bunch of cards to upload, but I'm having some difficulty with my computer. I've been able to edit (not with Photoshop, cause I don't have it) 2 pictures, so I'll get them posted anyway. This first one uses PI Skater Boy from MFT. I've done the weekly sketch, MFTWSC79 for my nephews upcoming 6th birthday. I used MME Fine and Dandy True Blue pp and I'm slowly building my Copics collection to match the paper pads as I go. I also used the Stacking Stars Die-namic from MFT and a few orange rhinestones for a little pizzazz. Thanks for stopping by!

SFYTT Feb2012

Here's my entry for SFYTT over at i(heart)2stamp. I've used Ainsley from Scotland, a part of the World Kids Collection.

Love Bites

That's the phrase that comes with this fabulous stamp from Kraftin' Kimmie called Fred and Ginger. Although you would probably assume that this is a Hallowe'en card (and a fine one it would make), it's actually a birthday card for my friend. She's really into "goth" stuff and I knew she'd appreciate the vampire. What's funny about this card is all the paper I used was given to me by her. I don't own a single sheet of Hallowe'en paper...That's hard to believe...I'll have to remedy that. Anyway, there's lots of glitz and sparkle, but sadly, it doesn't show up too much in this picture. The bats on the BG paper have shiney red eyes too...spooky...Have a happy and safe Hallowe'en!

Flower Garden

Hi everyone! I did this card for my Mother's birthday which is on Friday. I actually got it in the mail really early and she's had it for about a 3 weeks already. I've just finally uploaded it onto the computer...sad how long that took...lol. I used Flower Garden from Stamping Bella for this card. It was my first time using it. I tried something different with this card too, I used the Faber Castell Gelatos to colour them. It's kind of like watercolouring. They have a great texture. Again, I wish my photography skills were better, becaue honestly, this card looked much better in person. The colours seem a little "off" in the picture. Anyhow, enjoy!

Uptown Sushi Girls Chelsea and Lauren

Aren't they awesome eating thier little sushi? I made this card for my friend that's leaving me for the next 3 months (sad face) to go to Florida. The sentiment sort of worked for the occassion, "Miso" want to see you", but I added "when you get back" to the inside...I really wish I had mad photographic skills because my pictures really don't do the colours any justice. There's lots of shimmer and sparkle and it's barely noticeable...Anyway, the stamp is a newer one from Stamping Bella and the papers are Circa 1928 from Cosmo Cricket...Enjoy!
