Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge 99: Sparkle and Shine

This weeks challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmie's blogspot is

SPARKLE AND/OR SHINE!!  So make sure there's something sparkly or shiny on your creation....it could be glitter or rhinestones, crystal lacquer or metal!!  Sparkle and shine it up!!

I have been itching to try out my one and only KK Christmas stamp Elysia (redundancy sucks), and decided to go for a muted classy look.

I used an ivory gold dust card with a snow embossing folder.  I love this snow folder, as I think it is a great night sky too.

I coloured her with copics, and paper pieces her wings and horn with gold card.

I used Nestabilities labels 22 to create the shape of the image, and sentiment.  Then edged it with antique linen distress ink around the edges to make it stand out a bit more.

My sparkle is in the form of star shaped gems, and teeny crystals

The sentiment is by Penny black

Hope you like it.

I am very new to sketches, so hope my interpretation is OK

I used

Lillith

Papers are from Basic Grey: Hello Luscious  (I love this pad)
The "Thank you" sentiment is from Lilli of the Valley

I love to use this sentiment with Lillith :)

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge #91 A recipe

Well it's no secret how much I love Kraftin' Kimmie stamps, especially the Annie Rodrigue designs.

I finally managed to get hold of  Drucilla this week.  She has been high on my list for ages, and always seemed to be out of stock here in the UK.  But *woot* I have her now.

I of course decided to use her in this weeks challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmies blog is

This week our hostess is Tracy and she has a recipe for us! On your creations please include: 1 flower, 1 ribbon, 1 piece of chipboard! Think you can handle it!? What a fun challenge! 

I added the sentiment, from my hand to your heart as she is about to stick a pin into the heart of her Voodoo doll, lol.
Paper is My minds eye
Image coloured with copics
Ribbon and flower were from my craft drawer
Chip board Dragonfly is from Make it Crafty

Hope you like her :)

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge #90 Distressed

This week over at kraftin' kimmies blogspot the challenge is

 To DISTRESS your creations! So ink it up, rough it up, rip it up.....just make sure it's good and distressed!! 

Well I just love distressing so LOVED this challenge.  I have had a yearning to do a darker version of Cinderella for a while.  So I dug out my favourite papers Immortal love by DCWV.


I coloured her with Copics, and paper pieced the skirt, then added glitter.   I also added a Bat across the moon and glittered that up too ;)  The Bat was from the Batty Princess stamp set


I added the sentiment Kick up your Heels, and have a Happy Birthday.  


I did my distressing with scissors, sandpaper, a paper distressing tool, and good old ripping. 


I'm gutted at the pictures, the colours were really rich, but my day lamp washed it out. 


Hope you like it

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge #89: No embellishments

Hi,
Thanks for dropping by.
This week the challenge over at Kraftin' Kimmies blog is

She wants you to create a project with NO embellishments!! That means no flowers, no brads, no ribbon, twine, buttons etc. You can use punches and you can sew on your designs, but that's about it. Try to keep it simple!

I decided to give it a shot.  I think I stayed within the guidelines.
I was feeling in a fairy mood so used Rosabelle,
 then masked Make it Crafty Daffodill Dell over the top.
I coloured both with copics.

Paper including sentiment was Prima Madeline which is one of my favourites.
 Lovely rich reds, olive greens etc  Spicy :)

I cut into the paper around a floral detail, and slotted my image inside.  I thought it was a shame to cover it, tee hee!

Butterflies were made with a Martha Stewart punch

Hope you like it.

Kraftin' Kimmie #86 - Tag! You're IT!

Hey peeps,
This card was created for the challenge over at kraftin' kimmie stamps this week is

 we're going to play a game of TAG!!! You're IT! Haha! So you need to either create a tag or include a tag on your card! 

I decided to use Lilybelle as she fit so nicely on the tag.
I fancy cut around her and wickedly cut off her feelers. Then laid her on a tag which I covered with paper from Prima Sweet Fairy collection.
I glittered her up (including a sparkly new pair of feelers), and added glossy accents over some of the flowers.
Base card is also Prima Sweet Fairy.
Flowers and ribbon were from my stash :)

Hope you like her

This weeks challenge over at Kraftin Kimmie's Challenge 82 is called 24 Krafty Karats and she'd like us to use GOLD somewhere on our creations! It can be just a touch or a whole lotta gold!

I just got Batty Princess which is great fun to colour.

I added gold in the form of a mister of Perfect pearls heirloom gold.  I also highlighted some areas with gold marker.  I hope that is enough to qualify.

This is for a friend of mine to show her I care.  She loves Bats :)

Love
