{KKS} May Release Hop!



Welcome to Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps May release HOP!! For my card today, I have chosen to work with one of the cute kids from Ahoy, Sailor! by artist Cheryl Alger. I love the nautical look that's trending right now, so this was my fave set of the release!!



I chose a non-traditional colour palette to make my card a girly one :) I used a heavyweight vellum for the doily oval behind the image panel and the larger die cut portions of the flowers. The smaller flowers are a touch smaller and use various patterned scraps from the pad. I added some MFT buttons and twine, as well as a wooden veneer anchor charm.  I added the sentiment onto a vellum flag. The DP is by Simple Stories Homespun.


Check out the rest of the inspiration on the rest of the hop- all of links to the Krafty Girls and Guests can be found below….
