KKS Challenge Time!!!

Hi everyone! Welcome to another challenge at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps! I am the hostess for this week’s challenge over at the KKS blog and I have to say,  I am so tired of all the dull winter days, so I am going to brighten up things this week and challenge you to all make BRIGHT cards or scrapbook pages! I can’t wait to see all the bright happy colours!

I used one of my current fave paper pads from Doodle bug along with Book Pals! that was just released this month to make a fun and bright card, I think it beats the winter blues!

Kraftin’ Kimmie Sneak Peek ~ Day 1!

Hiya krafty friends!!! Welcome to Day ONE of the Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps FEBRUARY 2015 previews!!! I’m SO excited to share the new Moonlight Whispers stamp sets by Annie Rodrigue!! SO many of you have been asking for this theme…..and we aim to please!!

Today the Krafty Girls and Guests are thrilled to share with you two totally magical new stamp sets from The Lord of the Rings books!! If you are familiar with these books and movies, you’ll easily recognize GANDALF and GALADRIEL!!! You’ll find so many amazing creations on today’s hop featuring both new images and sentiments from these fabulous new sets!

I had to have and use the brand new Gandalf stamp, years ago my Mom made my oldest son a Gandalf costume for Halloween! I coloured up the image with Copic markers and then went to work with distress ink on the embossed panel and all the layer mats.  I didn’t want it to distressed, just old looking.
