That's Krafty Thursday #42


Mornin' hens!! Ready for another That's Krafty Thursday challenge?? Woo-hoo!! Well you know I am!! I just love seein' all the Krafty ideas from the hens... Ahhhh, all that Kraft CS does my heart good!! Tee-hee!!

Now to get you hens started with a little inspiration, here's a card I made with a digital image from a BRAND SPANKIN new company called Stamp Fairy. Gerda (the owner) was SO sweet to send me "George" and asked if I'd like to make a card with him. Ummmm, HELLLLOOOO?? Who wouldn't?? Isn't he just the cutest wee snowman EVAH?? I just LOVE him!!

I decided to do something a little different with him and printed him directly onto some Kraft CS and colored him with my Koh-i-noor pencils. These pencils are fabulous for coloring on darker CS and the white just pops off that Kraft, doesn't it? The ornament was colored with my Copics and I added some shimmer to it with my Gelly Roll glitter pen. The snow was done with my new Viva Decor Glitter Liner pen in Holo Iridescent. This stuff is AWESOME! Another Christmas card down and only a bazillion to go!! ***sigh***

I hope this little card gets your MOJO rarin' to go cuz I wanna see those Krafty cards of yours... Just submit your card below using Mr. Linky by Wednesday, November 24th at 7pm and I'll pick the Top Three Krafty Chicks from all the submissions AND not only will you be dubbed the next KRAFTY CHICK but Gerda has generously offered to sponsor my challenge this week and give each of the TKT winners three digital images of their choice from Stamp Fairy!! Woo-hoo!!!

Wanna play?? The only requirement for my challenge is to use Kraft CS somewhere on your card.
