Lola Lollipop - Kraftin Kimmie


Hello, I have another of the wonderful Kraftin Kimmie stamps to show you today. It is a tie for me between these and Tilda's as to which I love the most.

Lola lollipop is coloured in copics and mounted onto prima papers. The die is the one I used on tuesday and I have added a simple prima flower to it. I actually love this effect with a spacer and a brad, which I used to use a lot before the mulberry flowers became so popular. A little bit of lace from the ribbon girl and the butterfly from Hobby House finish it off.

Artemis - Kraftin Kimmie


Good morning, raining here, had a lovely day at the NEC on saturday with Heather, Kim and Jo (and the lovely Mollie), saw Dawny P, but she didn't recognise me lol! Had a nice chat with Jill at Hobby House and Sonia too.

Todays card is my Stamp and Create Spotlight Card. I have used Artemis from the Kraftin Kimmie Goddess range. The papers are an old Basic Grey Pad called Cappella, which I have bravely sewed using my new machine. The lace is of course cluny and I have added some brown velvet ribbon on there too. The swirl is a new die I have got from spellbinders called fantastic flourish two. The pearls are Kaisercraft pink and basic grey green, and I have added stickles to the flowers and a leaf charm.

For once I am going to enter this card in a few challenges, not done this for ages as my cards have not seemed to meet the challenges.
