Perfect Peony

Like many crafters, I love an awesome flower image.  Perfect Peony was released in May 2020 by Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and it doesn't disappoint as an awesome  flower image.  It is one I return to over and over again. 

For this card I cut white cardstock in increasing sizes and random stamped in granite grey Kraftin Kimmi ink  the peony image over all three layers of cardstock.    

The silver foil cardstock is cut 1/4" larger than each white random stamped piece and layered together to fit an A2 card.  A few silver glitter gems, and silver embellishing thread and the card is finished.

 

Yep, I even decorated the envelope random stamping.   

Look how versatile this set is - same image but this time coloured with Copic markers in shades of pink.

Lots of ways to use this perfect flower image in all your papercrafting projects.

Tags, tags, tags

 Have you started your Christmas shopping?  I have and next up is to wrap those goodies and finish with pretty tags.

Holiday Village from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps is the perfect set to make tags with all the cute little images.

I've inked the background with Kraftin Kimmie inks.  These inks are wonderful to blend and cover beautifully.  They are a pigment blend ink and the colour is so rich & vibrant.  

I again used the Holiday Village set for both the image and sentiment.  Lots of inky background using Kraftin' Kimmie inks and stencil.  

Liquid applique is a fun product to use that I have pulled back out of my stash to play with.  It is perfect for the snow on the roof & ground.  

Now to get wrapping....  Enjoy

What doesthe fox say?

 It's that age old question.  OK, maybe not age old - but What Does the Fox Say?

He says;  "Wishing you Warm Memories" 

Happy Winter Days is such a cute, whimsical stamp set with this cute fox, a wreath, small ornaments and sentiments.  It's one you're sure to use again and again.

It's fun to add lots of elements on Christmas cards and this one is no exception from shaker window to silver glitter to more silver sequins to a mini pom pom on the fox's hat.  Each one adds texture & dimension and lots of visual interest.

Gingerbread Kisses

 Mmmmm gingerbread cookies.  Do you feel guilty biting off the legs or head?  It always seems kinda weird to me but they are soooo good.  

Gingerbread Kisses is a terrific stamp set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  I coloured the images with copic markers, fussy cut and placed on the patterned paper. 

One product I have been using lately is liquid applique - it's a long time favourite and great for the snow effect.
