Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Holiday Scrappy Challenge!

Hello Krafty Friends!

I am excited to share a fun project for our new KRAFTY SCRAPPIN' challenges at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

These challenges are a lot of fun and give you the chance to use your stamps in different ways. Your creations can be ANYTHING you would like to create but NOT a card! That leaves a lot of room for creativity, including calendar, planner pages, bookmarks, pocket pages and traditional scrapbook pages. You MUST use a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp for this challenge! You have all month to play along, so grab some stamps, pictures and let's get KRAFTY!

This month our challenge theme is HOLIDAYS!

I love traditional scrapbooking. My husband is our family photographer and I always find he takes so many amazing pictures, that I can never decide which ones to use. To avoid getting too many pages for my layouts, I like to combine my traditional scrapbook page, along with a pocket page or two.

I created this layout a while back, however I am not sure I ever shared it on my blog. For this challenge, I added a pocket page for my 4x6 photos and created a few journaling cards.

I loved the Simple Stories December Documented Collection. I tried to made my 12x12 page look a little like my baking area after I have been busy.

I created two journal cards for my page and used one of the lovely 4x6 cards that are part of the December Documented collection.

The first journaling card includes a sentiment from the September release Magic of Christmas sentiment set. I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder.

For my second journaling card, I used the Made By Elves set, colouring up the sweet baker elf. I included on this journal card one of my favourite treats which I make for my family every year.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you take a little time over the next month to join our HOLIDAY themed SCRAPPY challenge.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps September Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the KRAFTIN' KIMMIE STAMPS September release blog hop. Let's get comfy, grab your favourite drink and enjoy the hop.

I always enjoy that magical time of the month where we Krafty Girls get to show you the amazing new stamps. These stamps are always fun and exciting to work with, however this month was even more amazing as the stamps are now CLEAR! This is very exciting. I do love the rubber stamps, however these new CLEAR stamps have me giddy with excitement! 

Today on the hop you will see amazing Krafty Creations featuring all of the stamps from this month's release. We started off the previews with the fabulous new sentiment set by Krafty Girl and Artist Becky Pearce called the MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS.

Our next set was from the fabulous Cheryl Grant featuring those sweet kids Lexi, Lulu and Lucas along with a couple of their furry friends. This cute set is called ANGEL VOICES.

Then we shared a darling set of elves from the amazing Emilie Goulet called MADE BY ELVES.

Finally we shared 3 beautiful sets from the super talented Annie Rodrigue, called FROSTY FRIENDS, HOLIDAY STYLE and HOLLY JOLLY.

I just adore the fun elves in the MADE BY ELVES set. For my hop card, I inked up the fun baker elf. I used paper from American Crafts called Holiday and embellished with a few Dress it up buttons (cookie cutter) and Doodlebug Sprinkles.

Here is a look at the inside of the card.

I hope you are enjoying all of the projects featured in our September Release blog hop. There is a lot of inspiration today and this hop features all of the images from this amazing release.
