Fred Bear, Flower Soft and PAPER Soft...

The Post Office FINALLY decided to cough up my stamp order from MFT.  It only took NINE days for them to get it to me from the time Kim shipped it... grrr...

BUT... ITS HERE!!!!  YAY!!!!

SO, Kate (Celestial_Stamper) on SCS had sent me some goodies that her store carries and I bought from them in my swap return.  Viva Decor PAPER SOFT... I went head first into this stuff... NO CLUE how to use it other than Kate said it blended beautifully.. SO.. I pulled out some Flower soft (a giftie from Kate) my Fred Bear Snowman set, NEW Nesties, so old DP, PTI Cream CS and one of my last three Heidi Swapp clear snowflakes... I attached a PTI button with some MM floss from 100 years ago!  LOL

The blues DO match, it's just my WONDERFUL photography skillz.... *roll eyes**  OH!  I also threaded some skinny satin ribbon (PTI gifite from Crunchy) through the nestie holes...

All in all, not too shabby ESPECIALLY since I used the ink holder as the applicator!  LOL  Kate was on the phone with me and said, "YOU WHAT????"  HAHAHHAHA  Come one Kate, since when do I follow directions... LOL  I am going to LOVE this stuff and plan on now practicing with it... LOL  You will love it too so drop Kate a PM at SCS   (Celestial_Stamper) and she can get ya the hook up on the whole line of Viva Decor items, her little LSS is DOWN WIT DAT SHTUFF!!!!! :)

Kraftin Kimmie-Bite Me!

Well, quite awhile ago I purchased these lil bats for a challenge at KK's... But, life as we know sometimes does, it got in the way... but I completed this card that was banging in my brains for some time now.  BUT... I used a trick I have been seeing on the blogs of super stars... see that ribbon?  Well, Jen (jenjoy71) and I were at Art & Soul up in Olympia and I saw this ribbon, had to have it, black and white... my fave... THEN inspiration hit...I took my copic marker which matches the MFT Sour Apple CS I used with the TH Broken Glass folder, and colored the white part of my ribbon, TAH-DAH!  INSTANT matchy matchy!!!  NEATO right??  That's what I thought, and finally tried it.  Anyway, this is one of the stamps I got 2 releases ago from KK, I STILL have to ink up my pin up girls that I LOVE SO MUCH!!!!  They are still in their envies!!!  EEK! 

I was in the middle of this card when I took a MAJOR tumble in the craft room, I was seein stars and I was NOT blog hoppin... OUCHIE!!!!  SO.... CLEAN YOUR CRAFT ROOM FLOORS LADIES!!!!!  LOL

Cowboy-Flower Soft #07


This week at Flower Soft Forum the challenge is to use the Autumn Colors, I got some Autumn Mix a couple weeks ago with an order so i got to play!  YAY ME!

I pulled out this older Whipper Snapper stamp (which I LOVE) and set to work.

PTI Cream, Terra Cotta and Dark Chocolate were used.

Image was stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa onto an MFT Perfect Paper Panel.  Tim Holtz Distress inks in Tea Dye, Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Rusty Hinge were used, the Flower Soft Autumn Mix was added to the bottom of the image.

TH Folder "Wood" was used for the BG paper and a MFT Chain Dienamic in Dark Chocolate was added for interest.

Mojo 160~KelliJo


Here is this weeks MOJO MONDAY card  Using Mojo Monday #160 sketch ...right HERE... I made my card.

PTI Ocean Tides, Lemon Tart, White and the Sugar Plum DP are the papers in this card.  The stamp sets used are Just the Ticket and With Sympathy.

Dies used are Just the Ticket and Mat Stack 4.

PTI Lemon Tart Buttons and TCP Twine.

Versamark was used to stamp the frame around the tickets and the butterflies from the With Sympathy set.  A couple of dimensionals to raise the ticket die and done!

Come and play along, it's always fun to work with a great sketch, half the battle is won! :)

Have a Great Weekend!
