May Release Krafty Peeks - Day One!!

Well, it's that time again, isn't it??? It's SO hard to play with the amazing new images each month before they are available and then SUCH torture not to be able to show them to anyone!! Well, it's been the same with the new May Kraftin' Kimmie images!!! Just WAIT 'til you see!!

This month Annie Rodrigue has given us an awesome bunch of vintage Bathing Beauties to play with!!! It's time for warm, sunny weather and days spent at the beach...wouldn't you agree?? These characters are perfect for summer cards, creations and to help display all those awesome photos on your scrapbook pages!!!



For my first Krafty Peek I chose to use Eleanor!! She is so lovely in her bathing suit and flowered bathing cap! Guess she doesn't want to mess up that gorgeous hair! I stamped her on Neenah using Memento ink and coloured her in with my Copics. I chose the colours to coordinate with the DCWV glittery papers from last year's Summer Stack. The layout is just one I whipped up....feel free to borrow it....I'll use it again for sure!!

The super sentiment is from the new Beachy Sentiments set that goes with the new images perfectly!! I created the sand under Eleanor by dotting all different browns and creams and then adding a little sparkly by dotting with my Stardust gel pen! I also added lots of layered flowers, attaching them with sparkly brads and adding more bling by using some Stardust Stickles on the petals. Hope you like her as much as I do!!



Now be sure to check out the other incredible samples by the rest of the Krafty Girls today! Then come on back tomorrow for some more summer fun!! And then these super cute images will be available on Sunday!!!

Happy kraftin'!
