Lola Lollipop - Kraftin Kimmie


Hello, I have another of the wonderful Kraftin Kimmie stamps to show you today. It is a tie for me between these and Tilda's as to which I love the most.

Lola lollipop is coloured in copics and mounted onto prima papers. The die is the one I used on tuesday and I have added a simple prima flower to it. I actually love this effect with a spacer and a brad, which I used to use a lot before the mulberry flowers became so popular. A little bit of lace from the ribbon girl and the butterfly from Hobby House finish it off.

Artemis - Kraftin Kimmie


Good morning, raining here, had a lovely day at the NEC on saturday with Heather, Kim and Jo (and the lovely Mollie), saw Dawny P, but she didn't recognise me lol! Had a nice chat with Jill at Hobby House and Sonia too.

Todays card is my Stamp and Create Spotlight Card. I have used Artemis from the Kraftin Kimmie Goddess range. The papers are an old Basic Grey Pad called Cappella, which I have bravely sewed using my new machine. The lace is of course cluny and I have added some brown velvet ribbon on there too. The swirl is a new die I have got from spellbinders called fantastic flourish two. The pearls are Kaisercraft pink and basic grey green, and I have added stickles to the flowers and a leaf charm.

For once I am going to enter this card in a few challenges, not done this for ages as my cards have not seemed to meet the challenges.

Hopeful - Whimsey


I have choosen to share Hopeful by Whimsey with you today. She has been coloured in copics and mounted onto Prima Tea Thyme papers. I have added a silk ribbon and tied it using the bow easy. I have added a cameo to the centre of the bow for a change and added a little umberella charm as hope symbol. White pearls add an additional touch on the top left of the image as does a pearl hatpin holding the bow in place. I did not add any flowers as the paper was so floral.

Thalia - Kraftin Kimmie


For my Stamp and Create Product Spotlight I have decided to show you Thalia by Kraftin Kimmie from the Goddesses collection. She has been coloured in copics and mounted onto Prima Nature Garden Paper. The little doily is by Wilton, which I think looks fab just peeping out.  The flowers are from my stash I think they are all WOC but I can't be sure. The lace is called cluny and there is a really cute butterfly charm there which is part of the new collection from Stamp and Create.  Little purple pearls and stickles finish off this card.

I do hope you like it x
