I've used the sweet TI image: Wryn- Hanging Around on my card today. I love how she is hanging upside down! I coloured her with copics and a wee bit of pastels, using the colourless blender to add some texture to her shorts. I used a TCP cloud border die and SU ink to sponge in some clouds in the background. The sentiment is from a TCP set. I added some enamel dots and machine stitching.

{SSSC212} Foxy Friend!
ERMAGERD!!! I am so excited that I finally made my first Reverse Confetti card! I'm not gonna lie, I have a few sets and dies, but I am a little intimidated by graphic stamping or whatever it's called *basically all I am comfortable with is colouring, LOL! and the rest of the card seems to just fall together somehow. Without colouring, I really have no idea what I'm doing!! True story. So anyway, on my last confetti order, this adorbs little Frieda Fox found her way into my cart! Now I only wish I had ordered her bunny friend….Oh well, next time!
She is of course, coloured with copics and she has a wee denim paper-pieced dress (which is not real denim, just a nice pc of DP!). I added glossy accents to her ears (hearts! OMG!), nose (eek! another heart!), the flower centre, the big heart and her shoes….
I used a Confetti Cut Love Note die for the little heart and the heart border strip. I added an MFT button and twine to the centre of the die cut heart. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the sentiment that comes with the set! There are a few but this is my fave!
I used this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge for my layout, rotating it to the side:
- Barbara Anders

- Karen Giron

- Karen Motz

- Lori Tecler

{KKS} Happy Birthday to Moo!
This week our hostess is KIMMIE!! And her challenge is PRETTY IN PINK!! So create a card, scrapbook page or altered item with a Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamp that features the colour PINK in some way!! Have some krafty fun and join us this week!!
I used the new set Down on The Farm 2 (yes, I am obsessed with this one!!) to create this feminine birthday card. Dies are by MFT *there's a little light pink button tucked into that rolled flower that is also MFT- just just can't really see it in the picture real good…I added some jute twine- that stuff is great for 'country' cards!! I added glossy accents to the bucket, her eyes and hair bow, the cows eyes, nostrils and hooves. The image was coloured with copics and pastels added in for shading.
Of course, we’ve got our FrugalFriday Specials on this weekend with 25-50 percent off some specially chosen stamps!!
We’ve also got LOTS of brand new 6x6 paper pads…
and restocks of EZmount and HOT KNIVES, while supplies last!!

Now check out the wonderful creations by our Krafty Girls and special Krafty Guests featuring this week’s challenge!! We’re sure you’ll be inspired!! Then join us, play along and you could WIN!!

Sooooo, you might have noticed that I did a wee bit of stamp altering with this little 'fella' from the Down on The Farm 2 set to make he into a she!! I used my copic multiliner to draw in some pig tails to make a custom birthday card for a friends little girl, who loves horses! What do you think? I used a sentiment from the set I {heart} You and pieced the little heart with patterned paper. I made a little twine lasso and added a MFT horseshoe die and button combo.

{KKS} Wine Wednesday!
I've used the super swanky set Wine Me, Dine Me. I coloured with...Prisma Pencils...GASP!! I know. I feel like an adulterer . My copics are very upset with me. I stamped in memento onto kraft CS and fussy cut the bottle and wine glass, popped that up, and then just the wine glass and popped it up. The glass has a layer of glossy accents. I adhered a strip of damask pattern DP to the bottom portion along with two large black brads. The sentiment was stamped onto the kraft base and then I ran it through a EF.
**Please note that you are more than welcome to combine this Wonderful Wednesday Share to Win challenge with other challenges, BUT not our regular weekly challenges. This must be a new and different creation than anything you create for our Saturday challenges.
Don't forget....we've got a bunch of new 6x6 paper pads in the shop, the Pastel Pencils are back in stock AND some new limited edition stamps in the Krafty Singles section! Happy shoppin'!!
