Hello Spring - mixed media with Krafty Kolours from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

Today's flowerful greeting is made with a brand new product from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps. Not just the gorgeous flower stamps but the inks, too! Krafty Kolours Inks by Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps! These are hybrid inks in gorgeous colours that are fun to work with.

I combined Krafty Kolours Inks with a new stamp set from the May release, that will also be available now in inky kits, and a wood door hanger laser cut with the greeting.

Flowers - colouring 3D embossing

I went to the stampin' gather hosted by my Stampin' Up demonstrator, and she showed us the pre-order Gotta Have It All bundle for the upcoming release and colour revamp. We got to play with the new pretties (and some of the current ones, too). She didn't have a planned make and take but let us create with our own inspiration.

Magnets - Distress Oxides on photo paper

Distress Oxides + glossy photo paper + Perfect Medium + Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps = Something truly amazing!

Strong Woman - Through the Craftroom Door, wall plaque

This week's sponsor for Through the Craftroom Door is Erica Falk-Huzar- Fun Stampers Journey.

My project is a wall plaque featuring stamps by Unity Stamp Co and a die cut from Spellbinders. The stamping is embossed with Simon Says Stamp - Antique Gold and Emerald Creek - Black. The flowers were in my stash, left overs from a kit.

Brew-tiful Day! - Perfect Pearls embossing

It's a Brew-tiful day when it starts with a nice hot cup of coffee. My card features the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps set, Brew-tiful Day!, and Just For Fun Rubber Stamps, Coffee Background, stamped with Versamark and then brushed with Cappuccino Perfect Pearls.

Golden Journal - die cutting with plastic, embossing XL, gold leaf

Making a journal incorporating recycled materials can yield a lovely result. This die cut journal uses recycled plastic packaging and framing mat board scraps as well as a vintage button that once adorned a garment. The journal cover has been embossed and gilded for an elegant distressed look.

Cake? - die as stencil, embossing on foil

Happy Birthday with Newton presenting a multi-layer cake and oh so many candles. The background is stencilled from die cutting. Newton and the cake are embossed on foiled cardstock. Did someone say Cake?

Garden Gate - gatefold, die cuts

A gilded garden gate with climbing flowers is the focus of this gatefold card. The card features dies from Simply Defined, Stampin' Up, and Spellbinders as well as stamps from Impression Obsession. All Gardeners live in beautiful places because they make them so.

A soft Spring card for an awesome person celebrating a birthday. This card features Impression Obsession stamps and die.

Rainbow Day - Multi-stamping, masking, stenciling, die cuts

Walkin' with a rainbow when the sun shines through when it's been rainy brings a bit of a bounce to the step, that optimism bounce. My card featured a House Mouse image triple stamped with a Kaleidacolor rainbow ink pad and framed with a holographic die cut.

Sassy - glitter die cut and stencilling

Like a sassy butterfly rising into the sky, classy and totally kick-assy! My card features a sentiment from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, a die cut from Spellbinders glittered with Silk Microfine glitter, and a stencil from My Favourite things coloured with Distress ink and Clarity brush.

Cat Nap - Sheepski Designs, window card with stencilling

How fast and April is here! The Sheepski Design blog challenge for this month is Animal Magic. What's more magical than a kitty sleeping in a sunbeam.

For my card, I used the Sheepski Design Cat Nap on a window card with stencilling which is visible on the inside as well.
