Kraftin' Kimmie's Challenge #9!!



Good Saturday morning stampers!! Can you believe it's December already??? I just can't wrap my tiny brain around it....only 20 days until Christmas!! I have SO much to do!! It's certainly starting to feel like winter around here too....yesterday was so cold and we even had a few flakes last week! Yikes!!

This week's super fun challenge is brought to us by my sassy Krafty Girl, Vicki!! She'd like us to make a Gift Card Holder!! Well, that's perfect for me because I'm definitely giving some gift cards this year to some people on my list!!

I decided to use the adorable pair of skating bears, Ozzie and Harriet!! And I paired them up with some of my favourite non-traditional patterned papers by My Mind's Eye! I coloured them in with the following Copic markers: E30, E31, W00, B00, E44, R81, R83, R85, R29 and G94.


I coloured the image, then cut it out and pop dotted it on a circular layer that I made using my Nesties. I sewed a little bit on the main decorated layer and the cardstocks I used were Bazzill Bling! I added some pink taffeta ribbon and a charm that says Joy! For the card itself, I made it a regular A2 sized card but added an extra flap on the bottom and folded it in. I tacked it down on the sides, decorated the flap and tucked the gift card inside. Super easy!



Now head on over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge Blog and check out the awesome designs by our Krafty Girls!! Then be sure to create one of your own and show it to us! Don't forget to add the keywords KKSC9 if you upload it to an online gallery, such as SCS...that way we can all check them out!! And if you join in the fun, you could win some rubbery goodness from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!

Have a wonderful Saturday!!!
