Hello and welcome to our FIVE HUNDREDTH Saturday Challenge! Can you BELIEVE THAT?! Five HUNDRED challenges over the last TEN years! So why don't we celebrate?!

We've also got a sketch to inspire you for the month of September! You don't have to use it but it's there for you to use if you need a little kickstart....feel free to use it any time!

Happy kraftin'!

For my stencil inspiration, I used the new So Many Circles stencil with Brea Reese and Pinata alcohol inks and Posca paint marker, pairing it with Let Them Eat Cupcakes coloured with Prismacolour pencils, and a CC Design die cut.

Inside, I used Kimmie inks and the So Many Circles with a blender brush to create a background for the sentiments. Life is short, keep calm and have a cupcake :)

If you would like to see more details on how I made this card (along with some flubs and re-thinks, too), check out my detail post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/cupcake-cutie-detail-kks.html.

Since this is the last Saturday of the month, this also brings to a close my guest month on the Kraftin' Kimmie design team. I have loved being a guest on the team this month. It was a great experience.

I decided to showcase Leaves Are Falling, using the boy and his pumpkin and pup, and pair it with last year's Grateful Pumpkins. I used a gel plate and stamping for the background and, once again, ink watercolour for the image. For more information on how I put it together, check out my detail post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/pumpkin-spice-detail-kraftin-kimmie.html.

Pull the slider up to see the mousie with a slice of cheese.

And inside, the belly full mousie. How very mice of you! You're such a squeak-heart!

The mice and cheese were stamped and coloured with Creamy Caramel and Yummy Yellow on a table cloth stencilled with Totally Taupe and Salty Sea. If you want to know more about how I made the card, check out my details post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/youre-squeak-heart-detail-kks.html.

Welcome back to Day THREE of our SEPTEMBER 2019 release at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!
We are keepin' things going with a brand new adorable set from artist, Neda Sadreddin called...

ELF-TACULAR!

My card is a double slider surprise that opens out to reveal Santa, the reindeer, and elves using a Lawn Fawn die set. I used Krafty Kolours with a waterbrush to colour the images with bright vibrant colours. I also added embossed snowflakes and used masking to add a blended background.

Inside, I stamped a sentiment with Wicked black and added a couple of the accessories for fun detail.

When the slider is closed, thee elf extols you to "Believe in the Magic!"

Holiday Wishes & Christmas Seals - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, day 2 Sept sneak peeks

For the month of September, I am a Guest designer on the Kraftin' Kimmie design team! This means I get to help showcase sneak peeks for the September release!

Did you enjoy yesterday's previews??
Did you SEE all the new goodies??
Are ya thirsty for MORE?!

Well, that's good because we're back with more HOLIDAY goodness for our SEPTEMBER 2019 release for Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

Today we have TWO NEW sets by our fabulous artist, Melissa Baker-Nguyen!

First up is....

HOLIDAY WISHES!

Check out the gorgeous larger sized sentiments in this set in a combination of lovely fonts! They can be used as the focal point of your creation, they can be used in combination with a coloured image, you can use them on the insides of your cards, on tags, on bags and lots more!!

Second up is.....

CHRISTMAS SEALS!

We've updated our trinket style stamp set with a combination of circular sentiments and designs!!! These new stamps are perfect to use with your circle punches, your round dies or on their own! Think of all the tags you can create and so quickly using these sweet images with our coloured hybrid inks! Plus they make fabulous additions to your coloured images on cards and scrapbook pages and all your other holiday goodies!

As you hop around the Krafty Team's blogs today you will see both stamp sets in action in combination with our awesome new September Kraftin' Kimmie products.....ink, stencils and krafty dots!

For today's sneak peek, I created two different cards. On each, I used the new stencils showcased in yesterday's sneak peek.

First up, Holiday Wishes!

For this card, I used Distress markers and a metallic marker with the So Many Circles stencil to create a background of baubles that I cut up and added a sentiment from Holiday Wishes on foiled cardstock. For more details on how I made this card, check out my details post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/holiday-wishes-detail-kks.html.

On the inside, I added a second sentiment with Berry Bliss alongside the last strip from the stencilling.

Next up, Christmas Seals!

I dry embossed the Holly stencil then used Kimmie inks and Nuvo drops with just a hint of gold from an Aqua Shimmer marker. I embossed a Christmas Seal sentiment then added it with die cuts and a bit of ribbon. For more details on how I made this card (including the 'sandwich' for embossing with a stencil), check out my details post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/christmas-seals-detail-KKS.html.

On the inside, I added soft stencilling with the Holly stencil and a sentiment from Holiday Wishes using Wicked Black.
