Cute Card Thursday 682 - Ribbon/Twine

 Another new week so another new Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. This week we are sponsored by Stampers Delight.

I have gone very simple and made a few tags. The Tags are an MFT die. The images are all Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. They are quite small but super cute. Coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using Paper stumps. I have added both twine and ribbon (just to show off - Haha).

Cute Card Thursday 649 - Inky

 This week over at Cute Card Thursday we have our new challenge starting with the theme Inky. We are sponsored by My Creative Scoop.

I have made a bottle tag with a pocket for a bar of chocolate. It is actually measured to take a bar of Lindt chocolate. But a smaller big bar of Cadbury's fits in too. The bees are from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and can be found here. I used Distress Inks for the background and added a few sequins. The bees are coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador with paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 644 - Christmas in July

Onto another week, so another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday. We have the theme Christmas in July and are sponsored by Oddball Art.

I made a box/bag thingie for this one. It fits a mini bottle of wine in. I found the wee chocolate Santa, he must have avoided being eaten. So I used him as a prop then ate him - haha. I used Dear Santa from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. I have coloured him using Polychromos Pencils and blended using Sansador with paper stumps.

Cute Card Thursday 643 - Stitching

Another week gone by and another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have the theme of stitching. We are sponsored by Dis Digi Stamps.

I don't actually do stitching on my cards. So with the help of dies and a bit of doodling I went with faux stitching. I didn't really know where I was going with this one. So I went with the Christmas theme from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Facebook which is pink and green. The image is Gingerbread Kisses from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. I followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday.

I then decided to add it onto a bag instead of leaving it as a card. We all need some gift bags - right. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Happy Holidays by Zoe Pearn.

Cute Card Thursday 640 - Flowers

Onto another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday, and this week we have a theme of flowers. We are sponsored by My Creative Scoop.

For my make this week I have gone with a sticky note calendar. I quite like making these. I have used Happy Hummingbirds from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. The papers are pretty ancient, which I found while having a wee tidy up. I've decided that I really must use blues more often. Coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps.
I am going to enter this into the Kraftin Kimmie Skrappy Challenge where they want to see anything but a card.

Cute Card Thursday 630 - Wings

Another week by and we have another challenge started over at Cute Card Thursday. This week we are sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps and have the theme of Wings.

I made a matchbox Easel card for this one. I bought a matchbox die (Sizzix) years ago with the idea of making Advent calendars. Does a card come close to that. haha. I would put some chocolates in the drawers. They fit 3 wee individual Dairy Milk Chocolates in each drawer.
Anyway I have used this cute Bee from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps - Sweet as can be. Of course being a thicker card, I had to make a box too. so it fits nicely in the box. Don't know that it will post well though. The papers are digi from Sweet Shoppe Designs - H is for honey by Grace Lee. The honeycomb die is from Whimsy Stamps - here.

I'm going to enter the box into the Kraftin Kimmie Scrappy Challenge. Anything but a card. Although I feel a bit of a fraud with the box as it's only the sentiment I used. But I'll enter it anyway.

Cute Card Thursday 226 - Just For Fun

Onto another challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and this week we have a theme of Just For Fun. We are sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps.

I made a nice bright card for this one. Colours I really don't use. But I think I like it. Coloured with Copics. The image is from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps from the set called You're Sun-sational. The papers are erm VERY old. A mixture of dies. The Sun is MFT the sandcastles and bucket and spade are cut and make from The Range I think.
I am going to enter it into the challenge over at Kraftin Kimmie Stamps where they have an anything goes theme.

Cute Card Thursday 548 - Monochrome

Oh boy - I hope I can remember how to do this. It's been a while. Haha. This week over at Cute Card Thursday we are sponsored by Di's Digi Stamps. The theme is monochrome.

I decided to make a sticky note calendar for my make. I have used a stamp from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps called Friends to the Finish. I thought that would work nicely for a calendar. I have coloured her using Polychromos pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps. The papers are from Papermania from many years ago. I printed the sentiment out.

And it all opened up. As I have only seen the yellow sticky notes we'll pretend that's not there. Shh we wont tell anyone. And a wee pencil to finish it off. I am also going to enter it into the Kraftin Kimmie Facebook September Monthly Make Challenge. Where you can win the entire October stamp release. Worth a shot I guess.

Cute Card Thursday 506 - Things with wings

We have a new Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday and the theme is things with wings. I went with the obvious one and used a bird stamp. We are sponsored this week by Star Stampz.

The sentiment is also from the set.

The papers are My Minds Eye and the Poinsettia's are Marianne Designs. The button is an MFT die as is the flag for the sentiment.

Cute Card Thursday 448 - Halloween

Another Week gone by - Boy aren't they flying by. So that means it's time for another Challenge over at Cute Card Thursday where the theme is Halloween. I can do that. I decided to make some wee treat holders using the Tim Holtz Pillow Die. They are rather simple, but I quite like that. It doesn't make it quicker to make right enough. Haha. This week we are being sponsored by Di's Digi stamps where the winner will receive a $12 voucher for her store. The cute owls are from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps as is the sentiment. The die cuts are from MFT and Taylored Expressions. With a bit of twine added around the middle. I am going to enter this into the Kraftin Kimmie Wonderful Wednesday Challenge where the theme is Anything Goes.

Kraftin Kimmie Wonderful Wednesday

I have made an Easel card for the Wonderful Wednesday Challenge over at Kraftin Kimmie Stamps. The theme is as always Anything goes, so nice and simple for you all. I have used one of the new stamp sets called Fancy Flamingos, and I love them. I had to go shopping for some Flamingo papers and found some digi ones from sweet shoppe Designs which I thought were perfect. So my card is A6 size and made into an easel card. I don't make them very often (not sure why) but sure do like the end result. The sun is a die from Lil Inker. I went looking for a sun die cos I didn't have any, now I have 4 - oops. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. I stamped the sentiment on Vellum, just for something different.

And just another angle for ya.

Kraftin Kimmie 337

I'm a little late with my Challenge card for the Challenge over at Kraftin Kimmie Stamps Challenge, but better late than never - right. Well I am still a Guest DT (for the month of June), so thought I had better get a move on. The theme for this Saturday Challenge is Wedding / Special Occasion. So I decided to use this cute couple - Lets Celebrate. Coloured with Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps. The papers are First Edition (I know real papers - shocking). The anniversary sentiment is from this stamp set too. I have also used the June Sketch from Kraftin Kimmie. I am going to enter this card into the Cute Card Thursday Challenge where their theme is Wedding / Anniversary. How lucky was that eh.
