The End of the Krafty Hop!!!
Well, you've hit the end of the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Krafty Hop!!! Awwwwww! I know....it's been amazing though, hasn't it?? And I've got a couple of fun samples to show ya!!
Now, if you want to start the HOP from the beginning, just head over to the Challenge Blog and hop through all the blogs....and be sure to leave a comment at each and every stop, because some lucky stampers are going to win some new rubbah!!!
Oh hi!! Back so soon?? *giggle* Okay, enough with the silliness....here's my first card and it features the gorgeous Samantha!! Isn't she a hoot?? I pulled out my favouritist ever Basic Grey designer papers....Bittersweet! And coloured her up using the paper's colour scheme.
It's a 6x6 card with Chocolate Chip for the base and I used my fave Copic paper, Neenah Solar White with Memento ink. I remembered that I had the matching embellishments and cardstock stickers to go with these papers, so I added those lovely little corner designs, little hearts and the sentiment too! I also added a trio of the fancy brads at the top and tied some scrump-dilly-icious chocolate ribbon across the centre. Lastly, I added a little bit 'o sparkle on her eyelids and her pouty lips! Pretty sexy, huh?
Next up is Steven Leary's Squirrel in Love!! Doesn't he remind you of the prehistoric squirrel from Ice Age, lovin' up his nuts?? Oh.....that sounded odd. Anyway, I pulled out my new 6x6 pad of Imaginisce papers and designed this fun fall card!
The card base is Really Rust and I also used Old Olive and the new SU orange, I think....can't remember the name though. I added a scallop border in Chocolate Chip, tied some brown linen thread around the middle three times and lastly, I added the awesome sentiment which is from the new Thankful Sentiments set!
All the new September images are NOW in the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps shop, so have fun shoppin'!! OH and we've got the Gimme Kimmie's Kits again.....IF you're interested in a discount!! Woohoo!
Happy shoppin' and happy kraftin'!!

Krafty Peeks Day Three....AND a KKStamps Challenge!!
Today is Day Three of our September Release Krafty Peeks!! Have you been enjoying them so far???? Well, we've got some more for you, combined with our weekly challenge!!
This week we decided to go with a really EASY theme.....Be a Girly Girl!!! That's pretty easy for most of us and it goes with our new Pinup Girl release from Annie Rodrigue, that will be available tomorrow!!!
I saw this All About Girls DCWV stack in Joann's the last time I was across the border and KNEW they would be perfect for this release! The papers are so sparkly and glittery and GIRLY!!!
I stamped the *new* Jayne image on Neenah cardstock using Memento ink and coloured her up with my Copic markers.....giant surprise there! I cut her out and embossed her with my Nesties and then while she was still in the frame, I sponged around the edge with some light pink chalk ink.
The card base is a 6x6 Perfect Plum and I used Pink Pirouette for the matting. I added a trio of sweet pink pearls on the right and then attached some layers of soft pink Prima hydrangeas with glittery purple brads. Then I made them even more glittery by adding some Stardust Stickles in the middle of the flowers. Lastly, I added the super cute sentiment that actually comes with Jayne!!! Don'tcha love it?!! heehee!
So all these new images will be available at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Shop on Sunday morning!! Plus we'll be having a super sassy Krafty Hop with some rubber goodness along the way, so be sure to come back tomorrow!!
Now hop on over to the Challenge Blog and check out all the gorgeousness there!!!

So did you enjoy yesteray's Krafty Peeks??? I know I sure did! Today I'm sharing the new Annette pinup girl image by Annie Rodrigue!! Isn't she sassy?? She's got that 'come hither' look, doesn't she?? *giggle*
So I decided to use these scrumptious new Bo Bunny papers and one of my new Nesties!! Don't you love the lacy edge around the circle??
I stamped Annette on Neenah cardstock using Memento ink and coloured her in with my Copic markers. Then I sponged around the frame with Wheat chalk ink. I used some of the large brads from Stampin' Up that I've been hoarding....honestly they hadn't even been opened yet! And I used them to attach these lovely flowers!
For the final touch I used the Sassy Girl sentiment from the Sassy Sentiments set! Perfect, right?!

September Krafty Peeks....Day ONE!!
Woohoo! It's time, once again, to TEASE you with the some *new* Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! Our September images are here and they are super fun!! We've got some SASSY ladies from Annie Rodrigue, we've got both fall images and birthday images from Steven Leary. And to top it all off, we've got a fabulous new set of Thankful Sentiments from Jeanne Streiff!! And today we're going to start sharing them with you!!
My first card features one of the *new* Pinup Girls!!!! This sexy lady is Raychel!! Now this is exactly what I look like when I go to kiss my hubby goodbye when he heads off to work......right? What....no?! Okay, fine....so I'm usually in my yoga pants and no makeup, but whatever!!! Hmph!
I used some fun new Bo Bunny papers to feature Raychel on...love the black and pinks! I stamped her on Neenah cardstock and coloured her with my Copics....then added some Prima flowers, some glitter brads and some sweet satin ribbon! Lastly I added the perfect sentiment from the Sassy Sentiments set. All the phrases in that set go perfectly with this new release and you'll see it used on a lot of the girls' designs!
The second card features a sweet new Fall image by Steven Leary! This is Scarecrow and Pal and my new Apple Cider 6x6 pack by Imaginisce was a perfect match for this adorable image! I stamped him in Memento on Neenah cardstock and used my Copics to colour it up! I used my Nesties to cut out the main layer and sponged around the frame with Wheat chalk ink.
I used a lovely decorative border punch by Martha Stewart on blue cardstock, added a strip of soft yellow and used it across the middle of my A2 sized card. I found a trio of small buttons and added them on the left side. The final touch was the combination of sentiments I used from the *new* Thankful Sentiments set!!
Be sure to stop over at the KKStamps challenge blog and see who else has some Krafty Peeks for ya!! We'll be sharing every day leading up to the Release Day and Krafty Hop on Sunday!!

Sketch Saturday Challenge.....with Cinderella!!
Well, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend! We took off to Toronto overnight and shopped all day Labour Day at the Eaton's Centre. It was great to get away and we spent a lot of $$, so that's always fun! Teehee!
Anyway, this week, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is sponsoring the weekly challenge over at Sketch Saturday!! Jeanette is the hostess this week and she created this fantastic sketch for us to play with:
I used the lovely Cinderella, which had yet to see ink....can you believe that??? I pulled out some Basic Grey papers and did her up all in pinks!! I also played around with my flower punches and made some paper flowers, which was fun! I punched out a bunch of the flowers in different sizes, then crumpled them all up and then pulled apart the layers. I arranged them how I wanted them to look, then used some antique brads to hold them all together. I distressed around the edges of the circles and also added the sentiment which is from the Steampunk Sentiments set!
Be sure to hop over to the Sketch Saturday blog to check out the samples made by their fabulous design team and some of them even used Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! If you use their sketch this week, you could be the random winner of some awesome Kimmie rubbah!!!
