Challenge 32 - Tricky Triangles!!

WOW! Sorry I'm late with today's post, but I slept in!!! Woohoo! I NEVER get to sleep in on the weekend because I'm either getting up to go to work or driving someone else to work early. Plus my body usually just wakes up even if I don't have to go anywhere but not today! I must have been tired!

Anyhoo, this week's Kraftin' Kimmie challenge is hosted by my wonderful Momma!! Diana would like you to use triangles on your card! So it can be in your image, in your paper, it can be the shape of your card if you're really adventurous! Just make sure there's a triangle somewhere....and if you join us, be sure to link it up on the blog so that you are in with a chance to win some rubbah!



For my design I pulled out my new Kioshi papers by Basic Grey and one of my original favourite images, Lillith! She just has such an attitude! I stamped her on Neenah and coloured her with my Copic markers in some lovely violet shades. The card base is Chocolate Chip and I used a soft green and light pink for matting and accents.



One of my favourite techniques is to sponge around an image while it is in a Nestie, which just really makes it pop, don't you think?? I used a purple chalk ink for Lillith. I also used my new Martha Stewart border punch, added some swirly bling and some two sided satin ribbon. Also Mom and I found some awesome charms in the jewellery department at Wal-Mart and I used this cute little froggy for Lillith. Lastly I used this fun sentiment from Kimmie's Fun Sentiments!

This week, there's lots going on at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! We are releasing the new June stamps next Sunday, the 13th and there are SO MANY new images, that we're starting our Krafty Peeks a day earlier!! You will start seeing them on Wednesday, so mark it on your calendars! Also we are thrilled to introduce you to a brand new artist!!! Heehee! I can't wait!

Anyway, be sure to HOP on over to the challenge blog to check out the inspirational designs created for your viewing pleasure by our lovely and talented Krafty Girls!!!

Hi Kimmie, your card is soooo nice. Love your colours. I've never noticed the frog so crisp before - specifically his eyes. I've never managed to stamp him that clearly. After seeing your card I actually went to my drawer and broke out my stamp and ink pad to practice. lol Thanks for the inspiration! Can't wait to see the new release!
