Coffee & Cuddles!

Hello and welcome to another fun Saturday Challenge over at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps!

Today our hostess for theme for Challenge #478 is Krafty Gal Danielle and she is challenging you  to use TEXTURE on your creation(s).

For my card today I wanted to use the adorable little teddy bears from the “Beary Love” stamp set. I also combined it with a RETIRED stamp set “One Cup at a Time” (so sorry… didn’t realize it ‘til it was too late!).

To create the texture on my card I used the “Puppy Pawprint Stencil” with some embossing paste combined with some Purple Pansy and Purple Petunia inks to tint it purple. Plus I also added some subtle designs to my coffee cups using the “Leaves & Vines Stencil”.

PLUS... the little dark brown bear leaps up and down in her cup....

Each and every Saturday we post a brand new challenge for the week and you are welcome to enter as many times as you like! These must be new creations and you are welcome to use any stamp, however using a Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp will earn you double entries! Each submission will enter you into the monthly draw of a $40 gift voucher to the krafty shop!

We've also got a sketch to inspire you for the month of April! You don't have to use it but it's there for you to use if you need a little kick start....feel free to use it any time!

There are two ways to enter our challenges! 1) you can link up your entries at the bottom of the blog post here and 2) share your KKS creations in our Krafty Friends facebook group! We can't wait to see what you create!
