KK Day Three Peeks

Welcome back to day THREE of our OCTOBER Kraftin' Kimmie Peeks!!!

Today we are sharing TWO super cute new sets by artist Thais Narciso! They are called.......I'M SNOW HAPPY! and YOU'RE SO TWEET!

Would you like to know who won the new stamp sets that we previewed yesterday???!! Well, you'll just have to wait until Saturday night at this month's ONLINE RELEASE PARTY!!! Hope you can join us for all the fun and excitement and prizes!!!

We'll be releasing all the new stamps you've seen this week PLUS our fabulous new Winter Kardmaking Kit!! You can read all the details about how you can join us RIGHT HERE!




So I had a brainstorm while making this card. I got this cute window die that I wanted to use. What better way to use it with one of our new stamps this month. I love looking out into the snow during the winter. I just love this season....I know what you are thinking...winter, who likes winter...well it would be this girl right HERE!!! LOL

For this card the image is actually the inside of the card! Super fun making this card! I also paper pieced the little girls scarf.

For this card I used Studio Calico (wonderland) paper, punches for the window and pine shapes. I coloured the image with the following copics:
E00, E11, E93, E13, E31, E35, W1, W4, YR21, YR23, YR24, YG95, YG93, YG97, R46, R05, B0000, B000, B00

It has been an absolutely CRAZY week for me this week. I am so very glad it's the long weekend here in CANADA!!! Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends...GOBBLE GOBBLE!!! So for Sharon's challenge this week I decided to use Witchypoo, an older stamp of Kraftin' Kimmies but such a good one!!! 

I was inspired by The Wizard of Oz this week (managed to collect all the toys from McDonalds with the help of my friend Kim!!) So I decided to try my hand at green skin and what a challenge that turned out to be. Although I think it turned out rather well. Have you ever tried a different coloured skin?

So the paper I used was Graphic 45, some American Crafts glitter tape, and I coloured the image with copics. 

Well I hope to see you play along this week!

Enjoy.
