Beach/Ocean/Summer ATC Swap

I was SO late with this swap due to the curveballs in May but I'm happy I finished these fun Beach/Ocean/Summer ATC cards!!

I also have to say I felt super trendy as this is the first time I "splattered" white paint onto my ATCs! LOL!! I do need a different paintbrush though.

I think the little octopi from the Kraftin' Kimmie Oceans of Love stamp set are just so cute! I created the background with the She Sells Seashells stencil from Kraftin' Kimmie and some distress oxide inks and Avery Elle Clear Shimmer Spray.

I hope my partners like these even though they are super duper late! 

Have a super day!

Mermaid Monday- For My Fin-tastic Friend

It's time for another Mermaid Monday!! You can see all my mermaid cards HERE!

Today I had so much fun with the Mermaid Moments stamp set from Whimsy Stamps! Love that mermaid and her little friends!

The photos don't really do this card justice! It's actually a very light purple cardstock and I sprayed the embossed panels with Avery Elle Clear Shimmer Spray so there's a subtle, pretty shimmer.

I hope you have a wonderful day!! Keep smiling!!

Abstract Botanicals Bundle

Crafty Al is one of my best friends and I have been a huge supporter of all her products that she designs for Not 2 Shabby BUT I'm a very bad friend at using them. 

I swore I would do better when I ordered her latest collab products, the Abstract Botanicals Stamp and Stencil Bundle. I'm pleased that I was quick to use it and made 4 cards!! There are so many more ideas in my brain so hopefully I'll use it again soon!!

At the time of sharing this blog post/video there are no bundles left but you can still get the stamp set and you can still add on the extra class too!! Be sure to check out all of the cards that Crafty Al has made with this bundle too! Her playlist is here! 

Here's all the cards I created~ for more details, check out my video HERE as I found it easier to just tell about each card instead of trying to type it all out!

Have the most wonderful day!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Saturday Challenge- Sparkle

   Good morning and welcome to another

fabulous and fun Saturday Challenge

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps !

Are you ready for another fun and krafty challenge to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing?

We've got some fabulous ideas for you 

and can't wait to see what you create!

This week, Krafty Girl Keri is your hostess and her challenge theme for you is: 

SPARKLE!

(Glitter, Glimmer, Foiling... you get the idea!) 

For my card today I used some of the great Kraftin' Kimmie Inks to create a background along with the Avery Elle Spray from the January 2022 Add-On Bundle. Next I added stickles around the edge and then I used Butterfly Dreams to stamp my sentiment. I stamped the beautiful butterflies on vellum and then carefully cut them out.

I think this turned out so beautiful! I can't wait to try and create more of these cards in the future!!

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like.

Not 2 Shabby Make a Wish Fairy Doors

Today's card was just too much fun to create!! I used the February 2022 Stamp and Die of the Month from Not 2 Shabby called Fairy Doors!! Oh my goodness! The dies are really what makes this magical as they let the doors open!!

The minute I saw this stamp and die set I knew I wanted to have some fairies behind the doors! I am so overjoyed with how it came out with the little fairies hiding behind the doors!!

Seriously, is it not the most fun card!!! It just makes me so happy and makes me smile!!

I did create my first process video while I was creating this card! Check it out HERE!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps January 2022 Release Day 2

 Welcome back to Day TWO of our January Krafty Peeks!

Are you excited about what you've seen so far!?  Are you ready for more?

I hope your answer was yes because we've got more fabulous fun for you today!

The stamp set we are 'peeking' for you today is from 

artist Melissa Baker-Nguyen

 and it's called.....

MY TYPE!

This clever set is so perfect for sending a note for so many different occasions! 

 Check out MY TYPE! in so many awesome creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs!  You'll also see the new stencils, Add-On bundle and hybrid ink along the way! 

I smiled when I saw this stamp set!! I grew up in a time when you had to take typing classes. I loved typing. The click-clack of the keys was soothing. I used the My Type stamp set, the January 2022 Add-On Bundle and the new Bashful Blush ink for my card today!

I inked up the chipboard from the January 2022 Add-On Bundle with the ink and then sprayed them with the Avery Elle Clear Shimmer Spray! Gorgeous sparkle!

 Be sure to leave some love at each stop on the hop because there will be a giveaway of some krafty $$ to the shop! 

You'll see more of our January goodies all week, and then everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party on Saturday afternoon at 2 pm ET in the Krafty Friends facebook group!  

For now, check out all the fantastic goodness in today's hop!
