Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge #16!! - Be a Little Ripper!!

Yesterday was a hoot and a half!!! I took some time out to do some stampin' and colourin' with my two best gal pals.......my Momma......and Andrea!! We giggled and stamped and giggled and coloured and....eventually we each got two cards done.....and it only took us ohhhhhhh...about 9 hours!! Baaaaahahahaaaa!

Actually, we did a few other things during the day too, like eat, chat, made a little trip to the dollar stores in town to pick up some cheap rhinestones and pearls!! Heehee! We had fun creating cards for today's challenge....which I'll soon get to....and also working with some of the new images that will be released next weekend!! That's right! We'll start previewing the February stamps this coming Thursday!! Woohoo!

Anyway, the hostess for this week's Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge is.....Nana!!! Otherwise known as DIANA!! She's called this challenge 'Be a Little Ripper!' so this week we want you to rip it up on your cards!!! Rip your cardstock, rip your patterned papers...just be sure to include some on your design and you could win the image featured on my Momma's card!!

For my card, I used the lovely Genevieve from our Steampunk collection, by Annie Rodrigue! The patterned paper I used is some other stuff from my stash by My Mind's Eye. I coloured her with my Copic markers using: E00, R20, E40, E41, E42, E43, E44, E47, E53, E55, YR12, YR14, YR21, R29 and BG10.



I distressed most of the layers with my distressing tool and sponged lots of the edges with some brown chalk ink. I ripped the bottom of the middle red strip, attached some gorgeous Prima flowers with glittery brads and added the perfect phrase from our Steampunk Sentiments set! So fun!

Now be sure to hop on over to the KKS Challenge Blog and check out the loverly cards that the Krafty Girls made!! Then be sure to join us for this week's challenge and have a chance to win!!

ALSO, I've got my birthday challenge going on too in THIS POST!! Hope you can play along!!
