More Krafty Peeks....with a Challenge!

Back for more, are ya?? haha! Well, this week's Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge is to use some Funky Fibers......some fun ribbon, rick rack, lace, twine....whatever you've got!! Let's get Funky!!!

For my card, I used the *new* Mona the Seamstress! She is from our November release which will be available TOMORROW!! Yaaaaaaaay! Here's a little tidbit of trivia for ya.....this image was drawn by the phenomenally talented Annie Rodrigue and she based it on her Mom who is a seamstress!!! And yep, you guessed it....I named her Mona because her Mom's name is MONA!!! How fun is that?!



So I stamped the image on Neenah cardstock using Memento ink and coloured her up with my Copics.....stop me if you've heard this one before....teehee! I used some lovely new papers from Cosmo Cricket...I believe the pad is called Nutmeg and I just love the rich fall colours!



The cardstocks are Chocolate Chip and Old Olive, along with some Pumpkin Pie....mmmmmm. I sponged around the frame of the main layer with Wheat chalk ink, added some SU buttons with linen thread and added some LOVELY lace across the middle. Then I finished it off with the perfect sentiment......which, by the way, comes with Mona along with a cute little accessory stamp of a pair of scissors!!!

I hope you can join our fun challenge this week, because you could be the random winner of this particular stamp from the new release! Be sure to come back tomorrow because we'll have a Krafty little blog hop to celebrate release day and the new stamps will be available in the KKStamps Shop!!

Now hop on over to the challenge blog and check out the inspiration over there!!! Then get stampin'!!!!

Oh Kim! I love her. I love the paper you used as well and I so have to find me some of that. hehee I have to tell you, when I first laid eyes on this stamp I thought,"Wow, my Mom has always been a seimstress. I need to get this stamp and send her a card" I think it is great that you named her Mona after her inspiration. LOVE IT! Hugs, Lisa G
