Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Challenge #80 Stitching!

Weekend! En dus weer tijd voor de Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps uitdaging, deze week daagt Carole jullie uit om te borduren op je kaart. Niet verder vertellen ssssst maar ik heb een beetje gesmokkeld, mijn stitching is namelijk nep. Ik heb gaatjes geprikt en daarna met de witte gelpen lijntjes getrokken voor een feaux stitching effect. Typisch een gevalletje naaimachine wil niet doen wat ik wil en ik kon geen geschikte naald vinden voor het handwerk *argh* moet  van de week dus maar even op bezoek bij de handwerkwinkel hier in de buurt. Heel vervelend;) want daar hebben ze ook erg mooi vilt om de Die-namics uit te stansen heb ik mij laten vertellen maar dat terzijde lol. Ik heb Krista gestempeld op DCP en ingekleurd met Copics, uitgesneden, geknipt en opgeplakt met Jody's Mixed Dimensionals. Doe gezellig mee met deze challenge, je maakt elke week kans op een leuke prijs.  Maak een kaart met stitchwerk en plaats de link naar jouw kaart onder deze post, succes meiden!

MFTWSC21, Rawr!

Okee hier gaat ie dan op veler verzoek via mail en blog zal ik proberen mijn posts in het nederlands bij te houden, jullie vragen ik draai;-) (To all my foreign readers, you can easily translate my blog with the google converter at the left side of my blog, thanks!) Het is woensdag dus weer tijd voor de wekelijkse MFT SplitcoastSketchChallenge deze week alweer nummer 21! De weken vliegen voorbij vinden jullie ook niet? Volgende week is het al weer Juni, wij genieten hier volop van het zonnige weer en natuurlijk de aardbeien, bbq's en alles wat met lente/zomer te maken heeft. Terug naar de kaart.... ik heb een kaart voor een klein jongetje gemaakt met dit enige Dino stempeltje. Althans als je goed kijkt zie je dat er ook nog een jongetje verstopt zit in dit dinopak *hihi*

Ik heb Claire Keays Little Loveosaurus eerst op DCP papier gestempeld met zwarte Memento en toen nog twee keer op het designpapier. Eerst op het DCP papier het gezichtje van het jongetje ingekleurd, daarna het gehele dinopak gepaperpieced en als laatste heb ik het hoofd van de Dino gefoamed met Jody's Mixed Dimnesionals perfect voor dit soort werk! De tanden zijn ingekleurd met een witte gelpen en ik heb het pak "schaduw" gegeven met wat grijze Copic Sketches.

Dit zijn de Die-namics die ik heb gebruikt:

My Favorite Things

Jaja jullie zien het goed, ik heb eindelijk weer eens een Tildaatje gebruikt om een kaartje te maken. Een hele tijd was ik een beetje Magnolia moe, écht overal en op elke blog zie je ze verschijnen voor mij een beetje to much...no offence;) Door Camilla die de allermooiste Tilda creaties maakt ben ik weer langzamerhand op het goede spoor gezet. Haar kaarten zijn met zoveel liefde gemaakt... it show's! Deze Tilda is de favoriet van één van mijn lieve vriendinnetjes, speciaal voor haar en met haar in mijn gedachten heb ik deze kaart geknutseld gewoon zomaar omdat zij C. totaal inspiratieloos is. Ik blijf haar net zolang met kaarten bestoken tot ze ook weer haar stempels oppakt, poehee ze moet toch begrijpen dat ik niet kan zonder haar prachtige kaarten en inspirerende ideeën!!! Tilda is gecombineerd met de gave Die-namics van...My Favorite Things. En het enige luxe probleem wat ik nu heb is dat ik de rest van de dag waarschijnlijk met the Sound Of Musical-My Favorite Things in mijn hoofd zit LOL

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Challenge #79 Text Me!

Hi all, it's time for another Kraftin'Kimmie Stamps challenge, this time Tara has challenged us and challenge you to use paper with text print on it or a sentiment including text in some way on your card! I took a Lily Bee Design Paperpad Picket Fence and luckily there were some pages with text on it, so easy peasy. A lot of paperpads have a few pages with text on them these days, love that:-) In combination with this awesome Moonlight Whispers "Tori" it worked out great I think. Look at the cute little dog and his funny face *hihi* Please join in with this great challenge, make a card according to the challenge and leave the link to your card under this post. Enjoy and good luck!

MFTWSC20, Oh Snap!

Hello and goodmorning to you all! It's Wednesday again and time for the My Favorite Things Wednesday Splitcoast Challenge! Number 20 is up and running and what a fun sketch again it is! Because the gorgeous paper (which was a gift so sorry I don't know the brand... anyone?), was still on my table I decided to make another one with this and I took the á la Modes Picture Perfect to go along with it. Love the "Oh Snap" sentiment;-)

á La Modes, I Treasure Our Friendship

Gooddmorning and happy Tuesday! It's day two of the previews for the new My Favorite Things á la Modes sets. Hope you've all enjoyed the fabulous samples of the DT yesterday, so many ideas with the á La Modes I Need Some Face Time. Today we are showing you I Treasure Out Friendship, a cute pirate girl:-) I've combined her with the lucious designpaper from Lily Bee Picket Fence, still available at My Favorite Things! They match so well together I think. The white fluffy flower is made with the Perfect Petal Trio Die-namics and tissue paper. Simply fold the tissue paper two times, arrange the Die-namics on to the tissue paper and slide through your Big Shot. Peel of all the layers, and then arrange them again together. Put a brad in the middle and spray with Glimmer Mist. I really love how this flower turned out so fluffy!

-inside card-

For the inside of the card I've stamped the girl on Fossil cardstock and cut her out by hand.

Here's some extra info about the á La Modes stamps:

 In the past we've released our á La Modes images in cling rubber however this month we're releasing both of the á la Modes in clear photopolymer, just like the rest of our stamps. This means that we can bring them to you a slighter lower price point than usual -$9.00 each! How fabulous is that? Since our clear stamps are made in the USA, they are of the highest quality so you'll have the same great image quality that you're accustomed to with any of our other clear stamps. Sweet deal right:-D

Please stop by at Kim's blog to see what designers have fabulous previews for you. I'll be back tomorrow with a peak of the new VIP WTG set!

A La Modes, I Need Some Face Time

Hi and goodmorning! Hope you've all had a wonderful weekend... I did;) It started with a great party filled with sweet, very yummie cocktails, a DJ and happy people. Saturday was the final day of the Eurovision Song Contest and yesterday was filled with crafty time.Weekends are gone before you know it don't ya think!  Today we are showing you previews of one of the new MFT á La Modes being released tomorrow night at My Favorite Things. Now how about this fun á La Modes I Need Some Face Time. The image is so very 2011, I think we are all familiar with it. We speak with our friends through so many social media's (see the little bird on the card? It's a reference to Twitter;)) but ofcourse it's so much more fun to speak each other "live". I've used the awesome 4 Heurs37 designpaper I've won at  Ingrid's blog acouple of weeks ago (thanks again!)

As you've seen over the last couple of days in our krafty peeks we have amazing new stamps for you to play with this month! We are introducing a new line of stamps from the wonderful Cheryl Alger. We have some sporty girls from the talented Annie Rodrigue. There are some more adorable dress up kids from Steven Leary and we have superfun new set of Scripture Quotes for you as well.
You will see the most of the new images while you sit back and enjoy our Krafty Hop. You'll see all the Krafty Girls as well some very special guests along the way. If you want to start from the beginning just head over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog. As you hop from blog to blog be sure to leave comments along the way because some lucky stampers will win packages of stamps from the new release! And when you are done hoppin' be sure to head over to the Kraftin'Kimmie Store because all the images are available NOW!
Now on to some info about my card from today, this is Jogger Carole with a cute matching sentiment. She's colored with Copic Sketches and cut out by hand with scissors and a kraft knife (Olfa) I've popped her up with some dimensional boosters I've got a Jody's. Love the fact that they are hexagon shaped, this way they fit much more easily on cut out shapes that the regular square ones.
Have fun Hoppin' and your next stop will be PEGGY MARSH from The Wired Angel, I am sure she has a fab creation to show!

Hi girls, I hope you've enjoyed all the Kraftin'Kimmie Stamps previews from yesterday, I did! Love all the inspiring creations:-D Today we are showing you previews from the Spiritual Quotes. Quotes on cards are always fab to cheer up someone or make somebody's birthday/celebration extra special etc etc. No card without a quote from my space lol. You can't have enough sentiments I think!

MFTWSC19, Hello!

Hello and goodmorning to you all! It's Wednesday again and time for the My Favorite Things Wednesday Splitcoast Challenge! Number 19 is up and running and what a fab sketch again it is! At first this sketch really scared me, I love the Fish Banner Die and all the awesome samples I've already seen with this Die but it was still unused in my Die-namics collection.(shame on me lol) So I took the challenge and stamped this sweet A La Modes, colored her with Copics and found this cute matching paper to go with the Something's Fishy girl and the Fish Tail Banner Die-namics;) I love the way the card turned out, never would have thought of this sketch myself!

-Inside card-

My Favorite Things, Creative Challenge Monochromatic

Happy Tuesday! Here's my creation for this month's My Favorite Things Creative Challenge: Monochromatic Coloring. Now I have to admit this challenge scared me at first but finally when I decided to give it a go it was so easy!  Simply begin with a favorite color scheme, find some designpapers and a matching stamp which will be colored in the same basic colors as the design paper. I got inspired by Inge who had used a little paperbag on this card so cute and fun! An extra little surprise message will be on the tag inside of the paperbag. For the coloring of the PI I've only used Copic Sketch E numbers.
