Kraftin Kimmie Stamps: September Krafty Peeks, Day Two

Welcome to Day TWO of our September Krafty Peeks
at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today we are sharing a preview featuring a fabulous new set from artist, Becky Pearce! Who loves snow globes????
We are super excited to show you SHAKE IT UP!!

This sweet 4x6 clear stamp set features a fabulous snow globe, of course! Plus adorable animals, accessory stamps, sentiments and more with a total of EIGHTEEN stamps for an endless combination of design possibilities!
Here is my card for today...

I decided to do the no-line coloring technique for today's card. I stamped my deer using Memento Desert Sand ink. In order to layer my flying team, I had to mask off some of my deer using some stamping mask paper. I then colored using Copic Markers.

Kraftin Kimmie Stamps- Weekly Saturday Challenge: Vinatge/Distressed


Hello Krafty Friends!! It's time for another weekly Saturday Challenge over at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Blog. This week's challenge is Vintage/Distressed! I decided to incorporate both themes for this challenge. You don't have to do both, you can choose one or the other but I liked the idea of both on one card.
Since Halloween is fastly approaching, I decided to do a Halloween themed card.


Stamp set: You're a scream

Colored Using Spectrum Noirs: 
Costume: BG1,BG3,BG6,GG1-GG3
Skin: FS2,FS4,FS8,TN3,TN4
Hair: EB6,EB8,TN5
Flashlight: BGR1-BGR3,LY1,LY2
Pumpkin: OR1-OR3,GB3

Pattern paper: Carta Bella-Trick or Treat 
American Crafts- Halloween
Solid Cardstock; PTI
Misc. buttons and wooden embellishments 
Stampendious- Aged black embossing enamel
Fabric

I just adored this vintage themed Halloween paper and have been waiting to find the perfect project to use it on for an entire YEAR!!
I distressed the edges of my pattern papers using a razor blade distressing craft tool. 
I feel the Embossing enamel also adds a great distressed feel especially with the ragged fabric behind it. 
I think the wooden jack o'lanterns also add the perfect vintage feel to them, what do you think!? Do you think I covered both themes on today's card!?

We always enjoy your creations so be sure to submit them so you can have a chance to WIN a $20 gift card to the Shop!! Show us your stuff!! In keeping in line with the rest of our challenges (Wonderful Wednesday and our NEW Krafty Scrappy Challenge), we will be drawing one winner per month from all Saturday Challenge entries to win a $20 gift card!! You can enter as many times per month as you'd like!!

Frugal Friday specials are UP! Better get 'em before they're gone!!! As of Friday afternoon a few items had already sold out!!
In addition to the great Krafty Challenges & Wonderful Wednesday, each month we will post a Sketch. The sketch will last all month long and if you use it in ANY of our Challenges or WW's during that month you will get an additional chance to win a store gift card! You do NOT have to use the sketch, it's just a little extra boost for your mojo if ya need it!
