January Release Previews.....Day 1!!

So here is our official first day of Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps sneak peeks....though you may have seen a few here and there over the last week! We just couldn't help ourselves! We are starting 2010 off with a bang, I must say!

Today I have TWO cards to share with ya.....once I started creatin', I just couldn't stop!



The first one features one of the new images from Crissy Armstrong! I wanted Crissy to go in a totally new direction this month and try something new.....and I think you are going to be amazed!!! She has done four GORGEOUS Fairy images!!! They are so elegant and magical and the one I've used for this card is Flower Fairy.



I pulled out some colourful designs by Crate Paper and got colouring with my Copic markers. I used: E00, G000, G12, E42, E43, Y32, RV32, RV34, BV01, BV02 and BV31. I used Almost Amethyst cardstock for the square base and the rest of the papers are from the Kaitlyn collection. I added some SCRUMPTIOUS velvet ribbon and attached some Prima hydrangeas with glittery brads! I pop dotted the main image and added some sparkly on her wings with my Clear Spica gell pen. I finished it off by adding the sentiment, which just happens to come as a bonus with the Flower Fairy image!!



The second card I have today is using one of the Steampunk line of images by Annie Rodrigue! I just LOVE colouring this one up! Her name is Genevieve! The fabulous patterned papers are by Bo Bunny and the card base is a Chocolate Chip square. I also used Pink Pirouette and some rosey bling cardstock for matting. I stamped Genevieve up and coloured her in using: E000, E00, R20, R000, RV32, RV34, E40, E41, E43, E44 and E47.



Do you love the embellishments on this gal?? That big, beautiful bow was actually made from some lovely ribbon that was tied around a pair of pajamas I got for Christmas....thanks Mom! And I added a corduroy button with some twine. Then I added two corduroy brads at the bottom . The main image is sponged around the edges and see that little map?? Well, that's the bonus accessory stamp that comes with the Genevieve image! Lastly I added the sentiment, which is one from the fabulous set of Steampunk Sentiments created by Jeanne Streiff to coordinate specifically with this release! Do you love her as much as I do??? heehee!

Anyhoo, hop on over to the Challenge Blog and there is a list posted of all the Krafty Girls who have samples for you to drool over today! Be sure to cover your keyboards ladies!!! And come on back tomorrow for our Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge and more previews!!
