Challenge 672 - Gingerbread Kisses

 

Good morning and welcome to our  

Monthly Saturday Challenge Mid Inspiration Post

at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps! 

We are back today with an inspirational post showcasing more ideas to inspire you and help get your creative juices flowing!

We can't wait to see what you create!

This month our Saturday Challenge themes for you are: 

Food/Cooking and/or Anniversary!

You can choose one or both - whatever inspires you!

I've chosen the food/cooking portion of the challenge prompt using the awesome stamp set Gingerbread Kisses.  Image & sentiment are stamped with wicked black ink & image is coloured with Copic markers.

The beautiful patterned paper is Simple Stories - Baking Spirits Bright.  

I've been using up some stash items & found this cute metal brad hanger for the gingerbread frame & added some white enamel stars and binders twine to finish off.

Our Ink Of The Month, which will be on sale all month long, features the gorgeous Bashful Blush Ink Pad, Cube and Reinker! Grab it now to add to your collection.

AHSC #542 with Gina K.

 Good Monday Morning!!!  Welcome to another sketch from Atlantic Hearts!

I knew exactly what die & stencil I was going to use when I saw this weeks' sketch.

This is the gorgeous Curved Floral die & co-ordinating stencil from Gina K.  The sentiment is also Gina K - Sweet Sentiments.

I've used oval die cuts from Brutus Munro and nested each layer, stamping the sentiment in wicked black ink (Kraftin' Kimmie)

The curved floral die cut is inked using yummy yellow, mossy meadow, granite grey and alluring amethyst inks again from Kraftin' Kimmie. 

I've popped up the swag with foam tape and added a few enamel dots.
