Welcome to our Anniversary Krafty Hop!!!  Today Kraftin Kimmie Stamps is celebrating their ONE Year Anniversary!  Can you believe it?   (If you’ve just popped in here, you may want to go back to the beginning HERE.)

We are celebrating in several ways.  First , our challenge this week is to create a celebration card!  You can celebrate a birthday, an anniversary, graduation or even celebrate friendship!  Whatever you feel like celebrating, just join in our challenge and ONE lucky stamper will win stamps from our OCTOBER release!  These images haven’t even been released yet and YOU could win some!  You have one week to post a link to your creation HERE on the Krafty Blog.

Also, the Kraftin Kimmie Stamps shop is having a SALE!  Assorted images from all of our four lines of stamps are on sale from now until Monday, October 4th, so scoop up some for yourself or for gifts!!

And lastly, I hope you’ve left comments as you’ve hopped because some lucky stampers will win some stamps!! Woohooooooo!  Two ways to win (plus a sale)!!

Did Someone Say Cake?

Here I’ve used Birthday Cake Overdose.  I think little Miles has enjoyed the cake just a wee bit too much.  I thought I had a stamp of that sentiment but I couldn’t find it, so I printed onto the patterned paper using a font called Socially Awkward.

After coloring my image with markers,  I used a clear 3-d glaze pen to add a little dimension and shine to the icing.

Your next stop along the hop is with TORI WILD!  I’m sure she has something SUPER cute to share!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day!

A Good Book is Awaiting

I used Clearly Sentimental about Books along with MFT’s Open Scallop Die-namics border die.  (I think that might be temporarily out of stock.)

On the inside, I created a pocket to hold a gift card on the left.  I used the same papers on the right, leaving plenty of room for a little note.   

The “for you” sentiment is from MFT’s WTG Chick Flick set.

As a little extra, I used a second sentiment from the new set to create a book mark.
