June Card Kit Time!!

Well, it's time to reveal the monthly Andrea and Kimmie Card Kits over at Scrappin' Great Deals! And this month you have THREE images to choose from for YOUR kit!

I created cards using two of the three choices and Andrea has the other one over on her blog.


This first one features Ladybug Nora from CCDesigns! Don't you love the bright pretty colours, ribbon and pearls? I used my Nesties and have her perched inside the circle, then added the ribbon and bow and the sentiment is from my Fairy Sentiments set.





My second card features Willow Kneeling from Whiff of Joy and I went with the browns and oranges and pinks from the patterned paper and cardstocks that come in the kit. I used my Nesties, sponged around the main image, added some pearls and the sentiment I used is actually from Daphne the fairy!




Each kit comes with your choice of stamp, plus:

6 - 6x6 Bazzil card bases
6 - 6.25x6.25 envelopes
6 - sheets of gorgeous double sided paper pre-cut for you!
2 -1/2 yards of two styles of satin ribbon!
1 - various bling, flowers & brads
several die-cut shapes that coordinate perfectly with your kit!!


Now there are only a limited number of card kits available, so hop on over to SGD and pick out which one you'd like!!

Happy kraftin'!

Time for some Card Kits!!

Okay, so I'm a little behind with this post....sorry about that!! The card kits that Andrea and I do for Scrappin' Great Deals come out each month around the 15th. Well, obviously I'm a tad late with my post. Well, you'll be happy to know that there are a FEW kits left!!



This month the kits contain some wonderful stamps from Unity, along with some gorgeous vintage papers, cardstock, envelopes, buttons, flowers, twine, even a little ink spot!!! Lots of fun goodies!

Well, these stamps and supplies are a little different from the stuff I usually play with, so I decided to stretch myself and make some cards that are a little different from the stuff I usually create!! I made two cards in a more 'scrappy' style....and I really like how they turned out! They were super quick to put together, once I had an idea in my head!

I really love the sentiment in this kit: Only those who will risk going too far, can possibly find out how far one can go. Such a positive sentiment!

Hope you like them! There are lots of fun things to play with in this kit, but like I said, only a few left! So zip over to Sheila's shop and scoop yours up!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Kard Kits!!

haahaaaa! How fun is that title?! As some of you probably know, each month Andrea and I put together card kits for Scrappin' Great Deals. We choose stamps, designer papers, cardstock, envies, embellishments etc. and put them all together in a limited edition kit! Everything coordinates so you don't have to think about what goes together....you just stamp!

Well, this month, Sheila asked us to use some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps! The December Card Kits include your choice of either Josephine or Daddy's Little Girl....or you can always get both kits!!



We chose some GORGEOUS new Bo Bunny papers along with some delicious Bazzill cardstocks and added some flowers, brads, buttons and some TOTALLY luscious chocolate ruffled ribbon!! You can see it all on my sample!

I used Daddy's Little Girl and stamped her using Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah cardstock and coloured her in using my Copic markers. Here are the colours I used: E00, R21, R27, BG0000, E43, E44, YG03, G20, YG25 and 0.

I made the layout to look something like a window and added the scrumptious ribbon as a 'curtain'! hehe. I attached some of the pink flowers with large red brads and added one of the sentiments that comes with the stamp!!



The kits go on sale today at the store, but with our large number of Kit Club members, there are only a few extras for sale, so be sure to call Sheila to order/reserve yours. OR you can also become a member and get the kits for 15% off each month!!

Well, I'm off to do some Christmas shopping today....hopefully I'll get it all done and I won't have to worry about it! Then I'm coming home to cut and package January release stamps.....yes, I already have the January stamps in my inky little fingers. Was that teasing?? Hmmm....it just might have been. *giggle*

Have a wonderful day!!

High Hopes Hay Ride Card Kits!!!

Happy Saturday to ya!! Mine will be spent at the library but it's supposed to rain most of the day here, so that's alright! Hehe.

Remember how I said I was workin' on some top secret stuff at Scrappin' Great Deals the other day?? Well, I came up with a little idee-er! Each month, usually at the beginning of each month, Andrea and I create these awesome Card Kits for the store and each month they sell out in like, a week! Then everyone has to wait another month for the next one. Sooooo, I had a day off this week, so I went over to the store and put together another kit!

Now these mid-month kits are totally random...(read: whenever I have extra time to work on something)...so keep your eyes peeled for them. Also there are less of them available for purchase, so they are limited edition and once they're gone, they're gone. So if you see one and you like it, snap it up before everyone else does!

This time I decided to create the kits around this fun High Hopes image from their latest release. It's called Hay Ride and features these two little cuties havin' fun in the yard! I paired it up with some fun Daisy Bucket patterned papers and they look smashing!!




Each kit includes:

1 clingmounted High Hopes Hay Ride stamp
6 - 6x6 gorgeous Daisy Bucket double sided patterned papers
6 - Bazzill cardstock card bases in 3 colours
6 - A2 sized white envelopes
6 - clear rhinestones - bling!!
An assortment of Imaginisce paper flowers, a bunch of flower brads and green brads, some Maya Road chipboard pieces and lots of extra cardstock pieces.




You have enough to make 6 cards and have lots leftover, not to mention keeping your awesome High Hopes stamp forever!! I've included a couple of samples that I made using the kit contents.

Here are the Copic marker colours that I used: E00, R20, R05, Y21, E42, E43, E44, E47, E31, W1, W3, W5, B45, B41, YG03, G20 and N0.




Now hop on over to the SGD site or give Sheila a call to reserve your kit!! And while you're at it, book yourself a seat at our Copic class this Thursday night, June 25th!! We were full last Sunday with 20 ladies and had so much fun!!

Alright, well I hope your Saturday is more crafty than mine is gonna be!!! haha!! Happy stampin'!!

June Card Kits!!!

Okay, gals...hold onto your hats because this month's Card Kits by Kimmie and Andrea are gonna knock your socks off!! I'm SO not kidding!!! We chose some of my favourite stuff to be included in the kits and they are gonna sell out super fast, mark my words!!

This month the featured stamps are Anyas by The Greeting Farm!! Each kit will include:
1 of either Hula Anya or Dahlia ezmounted rubber stamps
6 - 6x6 Bazzill cardstock bases
6 - 6x6 sheets of WeRMemorykeepers patterned papers
6 square envelopes
1 yd of chocolate frilly ribbon
assorted Prima flowers
assorted WeRMemorykeepers buttons
and assorted SEI brads

I made two cards featuring Dahlia and Andrea has done one using Hula Anya, so feel free to copy us totally or to make your own designs with the contents of the kits.



My first one uses a very simple layout as I wanted to focus on the cutie image. I used a pink card base, layered some plan dp and then added a triangle of the glittery dp that comes in the kit across one half. I stamped Dahlia on Wausau cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured her in with coordinating Copic markers.




Don't you love how shiny her hair looks? I added some Prima flowers attached with some of the small brown brads and attached a bow made using the frilly ribbon. I love the design of her eyes!!



For the second design, I decided to make Dahlia's hair pink! I used the teal blue card base and layered some strips of the dp. I added a matting of the pink straight onto the card then pop dotted Dahlia layered on the green cardstock. I added a cluster of the buttons in the corner and made her a little bit sparkly by outlining the flower in her hair with my Sakura Stardust gel pen.



I used the same combo of Copic markers for both images if you are interested:

E00, E01, R20, RV21, RV23, RV25, YG03, R05, BG10, BG11, E71, E74 and E77.

Okay, so these card kits are for sale now...Sheila is in the process of getting them up on the site but you can call the store to reserve yours if ya like! Be quick though because they sold out in 4 days last month!! heehee!!

Also, I will be up bright and early tomorrow morning to help out at the 1st Annual Garage Sale at Scrappin' Great Deals!!! The doors open at 9am sharp tomorrow morning and the sale runs until 5pm. Of course if you can't make it tomorrow, it will also still be running from 10am - 5pm on Sunday too! And you can pick up your Card Kit while you're there!! Hope to see you tomorrow!!
