For my "not a card", I made a box to hold some cards! I used three colours of Kimmie ink to stamp a pumpkin from Grateful Pumpkins then embossed it and added re-inker spray to the background with the embossing as a resist. I added the pumpkin to a box I die-cut and embossed with Autumn leaves.

The box will hold the A2 Kimmie cards I made for the September release so I can give them as a gift. 

If you want to know more about how I made my box, check out my detail post: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/autumn-box-detail-kks.html.

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

Elf-tastic detail - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, interactive, ink watercolour, embossing resist

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! I can't wait to show you the rest of the sneak peeks I have for this week, but this card is all about Elf-tastic!.

For more information about the release sneak peeks and the blog hop, check out my main post for day 3: https://rijacki.blogspot.com/2019/09/elf-tastic-kraftin-kimmie-stamps.html. This post goes into the details about how I made the Elf-tastic card.

Life is a Circus - alcohol ink, gift box, art crayon, emboss resist

For an Art Nuvo style gift box, I used a stamp set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, dies from Spellbinders, backgrounds made with alcohol ink and Marabu art crayons on an emboss resist, and a bit of ribbon.

Rainbow Blizzard - embossing resist, shaker. embossing on acetate

For a fun shaker card, I decided to go a bit out of the box and use a winter stamp set for a non-wintery love fest card. I made a Distress ink rainbow with embossing resist using snowflakes from Newton's Nook! To me, "If snowflakes were kisses, I'd send you a blizzard" is the perfect love sentiment year 'round. Let it snow!

Spring Fling - watercolour marker, embossing resist

One of the things I like about Spring is the explosion of flowers in all their amazing colours. I don't like the pollen so much -- Ahhhh-choo! I used Zig Clean Colour markers and silver embossing with a Newton's Nook stamp to create this ode to Spring.

Autumn Tag - emboss resist, watercolour marker

Autumn is a time of reflection, of thanks and giving. My tag features a Unity Stamp Co set embossed and then coloured with Zig Clear Color makers.

Petal Pusher - emboss resist, watercolour marker

You matter a whole bunch to me! My card features a Newton's Nook background with a limited palette of Zig Clean Color watercolour markers with an embossed resist.

Social Media - watercolour pencil, embossing, embossing resist

"Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin' in the future..." While spending time on social media, time spirals out and away. Time passes...

My card features a digital image from The Paper Shelter coloured with Prima watercolour pencils, an embossed image by Visible Image with a Distress Ink background, and sentiments from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.

Swan - watercolour embossing resist

I love the vibrancy of stained glass. My card features a stamp from Impression Obsession and watercolour on a Stampin' Up embossed background.

Congratulations - watercolour, embossing resist

White flowers as a congratulatory greeting for a happily ever after, my card features Unity Stamps and an Elizabeth Craft Designs die cut sentiment and Zig watercolour marker.

Weeds - emboss resist, shaped card

In every garden, we determine which are flowers (desired) and which are weeds (things to be removed).  But many weeds do become flowers when we get to know them. My shaped card features stamps from Impression Obsession and embossing resist with Distress maker.

Time - embossing resist

You're my past and future, I'd travel through time for you! My time travel inspired card features stamps from Visible Image and Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps with Distress ink and embossing resist.

Summer Fruit - gelatos, embossing resist, die cut

Yummy summer fruits make a delicious background for a Thank you card. My card features a long retired stamp set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps coloured with Faber-Castel Gelatos and waterbrush with embossing for a resist and paired with an Impression Obsession die cut.

Possibilities - watercolour resit

Almost 6 years ago we moved to Canada when my day job relocated me to the main office in British Columbia. We have been blessed by our move here.

My card uses a maple leaf from a Unity Stamp Co set along with sentiments from other Unity sets. The leaf is coloured using an embossing resist with watercolours from Neocolor.
