Kraftin' Kimmie's Premier Blog Hop!!!

It's here, it's here, it's finally here!!! Welcome to the opening of Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!! I'm thrilled that you could join us for our very first blog hop! You're starting here on my blog and hoppin' around to see all the wonderful creations that my team has made for your viewing pleasure!!! Haha! Not only that...there are several Krafty Friends who have joined us for this little hop...just WAIT 'til you see!!!

Here's some very important information!!! As you hop around to the different blogs on the Kimmie Hop...be sure to comment at each stop because one random winner will receive the ENTIRE OCTOBER RELEASE!! That's right! So the more you comment, the better your chances to WIN!!! Also, if you post the 'I'm crazy for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps' blinkie on your blog, you will be entered to win TWICE!! (It's over there in my sidebar!)

So let's get this party started!!!






The card I have for you today features my favourite of the Annie images....and her name is Charlotte!! Isn't she fun?? I just adore her pretty dress and her funky hair!! And she has such a quirky look on her face! Did I mention that all the Annie images come with a coordinating accessory stamp?? Well, they do! And all of Crissy's images come with a coordinating sentiment stamp! Perfect, right??





All the cardstock I used on this card is by Bazzill and the designer papers are from the Pretty Please line by My Mind's Eye. Yummm-o! So pretty! I added a strip of crocheted lace that was a scrap on my table...love when that happens...and I attached some pretty Prima hydrangeas with green brads. I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Neenah smooth cardstock and coloured her in with my Copics...of course!! The sentiment I added is from the Kimmie's Everyday Sentiments set! Our very own Jeanne Streiff created this fantastic set that contains over 30 totally cute sentiments for everyday!!

And NOW you can go order them at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps website....'cause it's up and operational!! Woohoooooo!

All our stamps are deeply etched unmounted rubber! The images created by the wonderful Crissy Armstrong are called Crissy's Cuties. And the images designed by the talented Annie Rodrigue are called Moonlight Whispers! Just so you know where to find them!

Now go and hop on over to Niki's blog and see what gorgeous creations she's got to show you!!
