Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - The Toymaker

 

With Christmas around the corner this card is bright and beautiful. I decided to play with circles as my inspiration. The stamp set is by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and is called The Toymaker. I colored it up, fussy cut around it leaving a white border and backed it with foam.

To make the circle frames I used the Stitched Nesting Circles dies by Tutti Designs. I stuck them all together with washi to tape all the dies together (evenly spaced). I used the dies to cut both white and neon green cardstock. I then positioned the circles over each other and cut the bits that extended. I made sure to use the biggest circle in the center so that I could use that one for the stamped image. I then added foam to the back of the frames. I backed the center circle with white.

I backed a few circles with the Green paper from the 6x6 paper pad by Doodlebug called the Home for the Holidays. 

I backed a few circles with the green striped paper from the 6x6 paper pad by The Paper Studio called Simplicity No.2.

I backed a few circles with the red and metallic gold ho ho ho paper from the Pebbles 6x6 paper pad called Merry Little Christmas.

The sentiment was from another Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp set called Dear Santa.

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Allstar

 

I am not a huge sports fan however I know people who are and this great stamp set is a winner. I enjoyed coloring this card so much and really love how it came out. The set is by Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and is called - Allstar.

Football - E13 E15 E19  /  N0

Skin - E00 E01 E02

Eyes - Black E44

Grey - N3 N4 N5

White - N0

Orange - YR04 YR19 E08

For the base I covered the top half using a fun black and words sheet I found in the 6x6 paper pad by Pebbles - Jen Hadfield  called Cottage Living.

For the bottom half I used the black and white triangles from the 6x6 paper pad by Project Life - Becky Higgins - High Five Edition.

I used a lighter orange then the markers so the image would pop, and I cut a piece  approximately 2 inches thick for the mat around the image. I added foam to it and adhered the piece to the bottom of the card leaving 1cm of the triangles showing. I then cut the image out by drawing 2 lines across the page omitting the football player and fussy cut the lines up to the football player and then around the payer and back to the opposite end of the line. I adhere the stamped image onto the orange mat approximately 1/4 inch from the top edge. 

I found the 2 sentiments ( You are so wonderful and Make a wish) as well as the arrow in the 6x6 paper pad by Kaisercraft called Daydreamer. This paper pad is really great and I use it time and again. I added a mat using the same orange cardstock and adhered to the card adding foam under the "You are so wonderful) and the overhang of both of the other two.

I finished of the card using XOXO stickers I found in Heidi Swapp's enamel sticker sheet - 312577.
