Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps & Little Red Wagon (You're A Star)

Welcome friends. Today I have a dual post for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and Little Red Wagon.


Did you know the Wonderful Wednesday at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps are ANYTHING GOES? Although we love when you use a KKS (and it doubles you chance for winning), all stamps are welcome for these challenges. Just create a NEW card, layout or altered item and share with us over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps blog or in our Facebook group (here).

The challenge runs for the month and there is a new change to enter each Wednesday. At the end of the month a random winner will be chosen from the submissions and received a $20 gift card to the shop. Definitely worth playing for right?

For an added bit of inspiration and additional chance to win, we have a sketch that we would love to see you work with. This is a look at the March sketch.


This week at Little Red Wagon,


Carolyn is hosting our challenge and it's called "YOU'RE A STAR". I would quite agree, however I am not sure she was specifically directing that at me. What Carolyn would like to see is you to work a star or stars into your project. Paper, shapes, die cuts, make sure we are seeing stars.

I got all sentimental on my card using a fabulous sentiment set called "HELLO FRIEND" from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. I used white embossing powder to create a chalk look with the sentiment. In additional to the "Star" mentioned in my sentiment, I added 3 wooded stars.



If you are seeing stars this week, then join our challenge over at Little Red Wagon. While you are there stop over to the other Girlfriends blog to see all of the inspiration they are sharing. Did you know that we have a Little Red Wagon Facebook group (here). Check it out.

For my card today, I went with my version of clean and simple. I used a sentiment from the new Hello Friend stamp set. The paper is an older set from MME called Vintage Find.


The chalk sentiment is heat embossed with black embossing powder. The paper is distressed with Tim Holtz Vintage Photo distress ink. I created a corset look on the card with a bit of ripped paper and black paper robe (Michaels).


Here is a look at the inside of the card using a stamp from the Words of Inspiration set.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Preview - Day Three! Hello Friend



We are still going strong with our previews for the February release over a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. There is so much KRAFTY goodness for you to see and LOVE this month.

Today I am excited about another amazing sentiment set from the amazing and talent Krafty Girl and now designer Becky Pearce. This amazing set of larger sentiments is called HELLO FRIEND.


I have really enjoyed working with Becky's amazing sentiments and showcasing them on my cards on their own. The large sentiments are perfect as your focal point, or to complement one of the many Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

I used the Friends are the Sunshine Of Life sentiment, which went perfectly with the Hello Sunshine paper collection from DoodleBug.


I used heat embossing for my sentiment and highlighted the sentiment with a stitched circle die.


Inside the card I added another sentiment from this set. There are 9 sentiments in this set.


Below you will see all of the Krafty Girls and Guest with cards for today's preview hop. While you are checking out all of the inspiration, remember to leave us a comment. We love to hear from you, and there will be prizes for each of the preview days for one lucky stamper. That's right, you could win Krafty $ to spend in the store.


There is also a PARTY on Saturday February 14th to celebrate this fun release. Join us at 6 PM (EST) at the Facebook event page (here) to hang with Kimmie and her Krafty Girls. We will chat, get to know each other more, show off some of the DT's projects and there will be a chance to WIN prizes. I hope to see you there.

Happy hopping today on this Fabulous Friday!
