Welcome back to Day 3 - Sum-sum-Summertime!

 

 Good morning and welcome to Day THREE
of our June Krafty Peeks!

It's called SUM-SUM-SUMMERTIME!

Today we are sharing a KRAFTY KOMEBACK stamp set!

For those who are new around these parts, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps will be celebrating 15 years this fall so we have a lot of retired images most people have never seen before!  (And there are lots of requests for past stamp sets!) So once in a while we bring a set back and this one will be back this weekend!

I've created a single page layout using this awesome set.  The sandcastle, flip flops and pail & shovel are all stamped in wicked black ink & coloured with copic markers. 

The sandcastle is also heat embossed using golden sand embossing powder.  

Can you see the sand pail & shovel on the photo?  I love adding little unexpected details. 

I've also used several Kraftin' Kimmie inks to add colour to the cricut cardstock cuts.  Just a little detail that adds some pop!

AND check out this scrumptious new coordinating stencil!

It's called I SCREAM, YOU SCREAM!!!

It's a set of TWO layering stencils to create this colourful summertime background!  Yummy!

Happy hoppin' and see YOU tomorrow for more awesome goodies!
