It's a Stripey Kinda Day!!

Happy Saturday!!! Maybe you noticed that I've been gone for a couple of weeks?? Well, my family and I had a wonderful and much needed vacation and we just returned this week. We drove to Florida and went on our first cruise!! I can't say enough wonderful things about it.....the accommodations, the food, the fun activities, the amazing weather and the awesome ports! We spent a day in Labadee, Haiti and also in Falmouth, Jamaica. Such an incredible holiday....and now I'm up to my eyeballs catching up with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! haha!!!

So this week's Kraftin' Kimmie challenge is all about STRIPES!!! So just make sure to include stripes of some kind on your creation and if you used a KKStamp, you could be our random winner!!!



For my card, I used the lovely Prince Charming and paired him up with some lovely coordinating Pixielicious papers. The sketch is a Kimmie original so feel free to use it...hehe! I really like it, so I'm going to use it again for sure!



I coloured the Prince up with my Copic markers, used my Nesties to cut him out and emboss him and then sponged around the frame with Wheat chalk ink. The fun lace trim is from Making Memories and I also added a trio of pearls and used my Stardust gel pen on his crown!!

We hope you'll join us for our Stripey challenge this week....now hop on over to the Challenge Blog to check out all the amazing creations from the Krafty Girls and our special April Krafty Guests!!!

OH and be sure to come back tomorrow for all the details on an incredible Krafty event that Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps will be at next weekend!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee! So exciting!!

Happy kraftin'!
