The current challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is to create a project with a birthday theme. I don't have many Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps yet, but I did get Dancing Dylan in my last order as a freebie. I combined her with a sentiment that makes a perfect birthday card!
I colored her with Copics. I am working hard to whittle down my scrap pile, so I am pleased to say that almost every piece used was a scrap!
I am also entering this in the Wednesday Anything Goes. Hopefully that is allowed! I will be away from my crafty space for over a week!

New Beginnings V2.0
I wanted to get a card in for Mo's current challenge and how funny that the theme is new beginnings as well! I found Maurie Manning's images a long time ago and Sumpin's Wrong was one of the first ones I bought. I finally feel like I can do it justice. =)
I have had this card idea rolling around for a while, but it still took me forever to put it all together! The little bits always seem to trip me up. The stamp is colored with Copic's and I paper pieced the shirt. I had this idea in my head that I wanted his shirt to be tan plaid. Couldn't exactly tell you why though. With all of the paper I own, can you believe I did not have the right color?! I went in search online and found this gorgeous tan plaid digital paper on Granny Enchanted. There are a lot of wonderful kits and freebies! If you love paper, this is definitely the place for you! The great thing about the digital paper is I could reduce the size of the plaid to fit the scale of the shirt and then use a larger version for the background paper!
Now I just have to wait for someone to have a little boy so I can give them this card. =)

New Beginnings
The Saturday challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is New Beginnings. I couldn't come up with an idea, and then it struck me out of the blue this afternoon! I am skidding in by the seat of my pants, but better late than never!
I used this adorable stamp by Rachelle Anne Miller called Bear Hugs. It is a Valentine's Day stamp so I just wasn't thinking of it as a stamp for a baby card. I think it work perfectly! I kept the colors neutral because at the moment I don't know anyone having a baby. =P
I am going to link this up for the Krafty Guest challenge too. You can never have too many entries...right?!

In Love With La La Land
I have finally gotten an La La Land Crafts image. I have seen them for a while, but never gotten around to owning any. That changed the other day when I bought Paper Doll Marci.
I colored her with Copics and a few Triart markers. The flower is one I crocheted myself and I added a vintage button.
Since I can enter multiple times in the Kraftin' Kimmie Krafty Guest contest, I am going to link this up over there as well. Did I tell you I would love to play along?!

Hugs on Acetate
Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is looking for a few Krafty Guests to play with them over the coming months. I decided to give it a go! You don't have to use a KKS image to play, but if you have them, show them off! I just got a few in the mail...well...not just. I have had them for a little while and not had a chance to play. So now is the perfect time!
I used Jayne and colored her with Copics. She is retired so if you love her, better go get her! Wouldn't you know...as I was coloring my E000 marker ran out! I couldn't finish coloring her legs! I was so happy with what I had done so far, that I decided to crop the stamp and put it on the card. This was my first go at an acetate card and I am pretty happy with the way it turned out. It isn't easy to photograph though! I stamped the DeNami Design sentiment from the Heartfelt Greetings set with StazOn directly onto the acetate.
And since it is Wednesday and the new Wonderful Wednesday challenge is up, I am going to add my project there as well!
Fingers crossed for the Krafty Guest spot! I think it would be so much fun to play along!
