Woo Hoo!!!! When I heard that Miss Kimmie was going to release another Smart Assy set well lets just say I got super excited!!! A little dancing even may have occurred. LOL.

I choose to use the girl with coffee because and let's be honest here - that's totally me....hair half done, fuzzy slippers, face mask and of course a coffee! I also did her slippers with liquid applique so they were super fuzzy.

April Release Day 3 - Ewe's Fluffy and The Funny Farm!!

Welcome Krafty Friends to Day THREE of our April Krafty Previews!!!

Welcome to another day of Krafty Peeks for our fabulous new April release of clear stamps!! We have some sweet new designs to inspire you this month from artist, Annie Rodrigue!

First off, we have a fluffy new stamp set featuring a sweet farm girl and her wooly friend called EWE'S FLUFFY! The set also includes a set of tools in a barrel as a great accessory stamp plus two very fun sentiments!

Secondly....many of you have been asking for background stamps so.....we're introducing our first one this month! It's called THE FUNNY FARM!!! This beautiful stamp features such gorgeous artwork by Annie and it's approximately 4.75 inches wide! The set also includes SIX wonderful sentiment stamps!

I am so excited for this background stamp!!! coming from a farming family I was stoked that it was a country scene!!!! I knew I wanted to do a sunrise for this stamp. I also used gingham for the paper behind. I know it's a stereotype but to me that is what reminds me of my grandfather (the farmer in the family) and therefore our old farm.

You'll see both stamp sets featured by our amazing Krafty Girl Design Team in today's blog hop!

GNOMIES you are all one of a kind...did you know that because you totally are!!! Becky totally outdid herself with this set, don't ya think!!!!!

I choose to use the girl gnome and the little snail with a sentiment - I wanted to really focus on the stamp and sentiment so I stayed to a more clean and simple approach. I also had that cute wooden mushroom I wanted to incorporate.
