Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge #19!!


Welllllllll......what do you think of our exciting news??? What?? You didn't hear about it?? Make sure to check out the post with all the details!!

This week's Kraftin' Kimmie challenge is a fun one....and and easy one for me! Andrea is our hostess this week and her challenge is Buttons and Bows! If you've followed my blog for any amount of time, you know that I LOVE ribbon and include some on just about every card I make!! And buttons....I love my buttons! And to combine them on the same card? Well, that's just heaven!

For my design, I decided to use one of my older images....I thought Lola needed to be inked up again!! I pulled out some scraps of designer paper that were in my pile o' papers stash on my crafty table....and I wonder why I only have a tiny area to work on my cards....and coloured her up using my Copic markers. I cut her out and embossed her using some of my Nesties and then sponged around the frame while it was still in the Nestie. I used Chocolate Chip for the 6x6 card base and used some soft yellow Bazill for matting.



The ribbon I tied around the middle is a chocolate satin and the buttons are all by Basic Grey. I tied the big one on the ribbon with some chocolate linen thread. Finally I used the perfect sentiment, which is from the Kimmie's Fun Sentiments set!

Now be sure to hop over to the Kraftin' Kimmie blog and get some inspiration from the fantastic samples made by the Krafty Girls!! Then go ahead and join in the fun and create one of your own....you could win the Puppy Love stamp set if you are the random winner!

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!!
