Challenge #143 at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps: Make a Scene!

Hey, all!  I hope everyone's weekend is off to a fabulous start!  Thursday, my friend Shay and I drove to Dallas from Albuquerque to attend the Intermediate Copic Certification class with Cindy Lawrence today.  10 hours cooped up in a car with me and she didn't even put me out on the side of the road...hahaha!  She must have the patience of Job ;D  After lots of gabbing and a few pit stops, we finally arrived in Dallas and managed to do so in one piece.  

Since arriving, we've been tearing up the city.  We even managed to hit a sweet little stamp store called The Stamp Asylum and convinced the owner to keep it open for us after-hours, so that we could do a bit of looking around.  Then we were off to the Swedish shopping mecca known as IKEA.  WOWZERS!  We only had 2 hours before they closed, so we were like a couple of Texas tornados blowing through there.  The final destination for the evening was a couple of platters of Tex-Mex food at Chuy's.    

Saturday, we'll be in class all day, but Sunday we'll be free to get into some trouble before we head back home.  We're thinking we can squeeze in some BBQ at the Hard 8.  Hope it's tasty!

Okay, enough of my shenanigans.  You're here for the latest and greatest challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps.  This week's talented hostess is Melanie and her card is oh so incredible!  She has tasked us with "making a scene".  I made my DT card while sitting in a hotel room today, so I'm not that pleased with it.  In fact, it looks like the scene I've created is Lulu in outer space.  Doesn't it look like she's trick-or-treating on Mars...LOL!!!  Oh well, Lulu looks happy, so I guess the Martians give out good candy ;D  Anyway, I had limited resources and this was the best I could come up with, so don't judge me...hahaha!

Visit the Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge blog and join the fun.  Load your "make a scene" card and you could win your choice of one of the 2 images that Melanie used on her fabulous card!  Also, be sure to swing by the Kraftin' Kimmie shop and check out the Frugal Friday Specials under the DEALS, DEALS, DEALS tab.  There are some great images on special.  

Okay, I better scoot!  I've got a big day ahead of me ;D  Stay krafty!

Don't be shocked, but I made 2 cards for this hop.  Yes, count 'em...one, two!  The first one features one of Annie Rodrigue's new Candy Girls, Lola Lollipop.  Isn't she sweet..LOL!  I couldn't resist turning her into a Halloween card, so I paired her with one of Nicole Aspinall's awesome Halloween Trinkets and some of my favorite new spooky papers from Authentique.  Voila!  Halloween Card!  The second card features an image from Emilie Goulet's new set, Too Cute to Spook 2.  I adore a kitty and this one is no exception!  I added a Halloween Trinket to this card, as well.  I swear I am addicted to them!

August Krafty Peeks: Day One!

Hey, Bloggers!  Welcome back!  Today is Day One of August's Krafty Peeks at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and we're showcasing a fabulous new set by our very ownNicole Aspinall, Halloween Trinkets!  I love working with these fabulous circle sentiments.  They fit perfectly in standard punches, but I use them with my nestie dies, so I can layer them up.  

Trinkets are so incredibly versatile.  Use them to jazz up an image with a little something or make them the focal point with some fabulous die cut layers and fun embellishments.  Speaking of fun embellishments...see the glittery spider in the lower right hand corner?  You'll never guess where I found that little beauty.  Not Michael's...not Hobby Lobby...not one of our local stamp stores.  I found him at Pier One!  Yep!  They have a stellar Halloween section this year and I found lots of these spiders in various colors.  If you live in the Albuquerque area, don't bother hitting the store on San Mateo, because I completely cleaned them out...LOL!  

Be sure to hit all the DT's blogs and leave comments as you go, because one lucky winner will be randomly selected by Kimmie to receive a set of these wonderful Halloween Trinkets!  Wouldn't these be awesome to add to your Halloween stamp stash?  Start at the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge Blog and go from there.  

Okay, that's it for me today.  Pop back in tomorrow because we will be previewing some lovely new images by Cheryl Alger!  Until then, stay krafty!

Challenge #141 at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps: Animals or Insects

Hey, Bloggers!  Welcome back!  Mom popped into town for a visit so I've been neglecting my blog while we spent some time shopping for crafty stuff, relaxing and chatting, and eating our way through the weekend.  After a fun and fabulous few days, it's time to get back into the swing of things.

August is already here and to me, that means that it's open season on Halloween.  That might seem early to a few of you, but Hobby Lobby and other stores are already breaking out the Christmas stuff, so I have to squeeze in a bit of crafting where I can that focuses on my favorite celebrations...Halloween and Dia de los Muertos.

This week's Hostess Extraordinaire, Angie, gave me just the opportunity to do just that when she tasked us to leave the people out the picture and only use an animal or an insect image on our card.  My mind immediately went straight to Kreepy Kitty by Emilie Goulet, available in the Kraftin' Kimmie Shop.  I LOVE this ferocious feline!  In fact, he is quite svelte and I wish he would pass on some diet secrets to my own chunky gato, Super Titus Devil Kitty.  Seems Titus has been letting himself go lately.  I'm thinking he might be bored, as my older female kitty is not interested in his playful tussling.  I'm actually considering getting Titus his own cat, but I'm afraid he won't take care of it.  LOL!  Stop by the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps Challenge Blog for some eye-popping inspiration from the DT.  These gals are amazing!

One more thing, before I go, Kimmie is having a huge sale in the shop with roughly 65 designs on special.  Her daughter Emileigh just had her wisdom teeth taken out and as a way to lift her spirits, Kimmie let her design this sale.  How cool is that!  We hope Emileigh starts feeling better real soon, but until then, grab your Wish List and start marking stuff off.  Hurry though, the sale ends on Sunday.

Okay, I better scoot!  Until next time, stay krafty!
