Autumn gnomes

 Good Morning,

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I am sharing this fun card I made from the new fall release at Polkadoodles. This guy is just the cutest. I colored him with copics and added a bit of stickles to the pumpkins and butterflies just because I can. 

Even the paper and sentiment is from the same collection, which I love when it all comes with a complete collection.

First Grade

 Hello!

It is that time of year when all the littles go back to school. This year my oldest granddaughter is going into first grade!!! Well now that is a big deal, so I made her this adorable card.

This image from La La Land Crafts just reminded me of my granddaughter, eye glasses and all! I had to get it. I colored her up using copics and added an Ice Cream charm because it is sooo cool! I think she will love it.

Thankful for you

 Hello, 

Today I want to share a card I made for Thanksgiving, perfect for a little one in your life (or even a big one haha). 

I used Marci Pilgrim stamp from La La Land Stamps and colored her with my copics. The paper is from an old pad I had from Prima called Autumn Sunset. I cut a lot of the paper apart and used it for my embellishments. I inked the edges with Distress Ink to make it pop out a bit. I added some lace and pearls too just because.

Let me know what you think.

Get Better

 Hello my friends,

Today's card is a sweet one. I made this using the new clear stamp release from Polkadoodles Get well soon. It is a limited edition but so cute and sweet! 

I stamped several of the stamps to make this little scene and then colored it using copics. Added a few embellishments and a quick card is created.

New Name

 Hi Everyone,

It's me Kim, I have changed my name yet again!!! This time I am trying to keep it all under one name. So I sell on Etsy, have a Facebook page, an Instagram and my blog now will all be Holiday Cards By Kim.

I am excited to start officially selling my cards. I have dabbled around a bit before but I am going at it hard this time. I have over 200 cards waiting to be sold. I cannot justify letting them sit here. 

Oh I have donated cards, given cards as occasions arise but I still have many, many to sell. So here I am trying my best because I am still making them hahahaha!

With that today's card I used an image from La La Land digital stamps for a back to school card. I thought this Reading Luca was perfect. The papers I had on hand are from Doodlebug Design. I colored him up with copics and added some cute embellishments. Those adorable vehicles are a die from Memory Box called auto parts, I love them, they look so cute. 

 

Let me know what you think! I am entering this in the following challenges:  

Dies R Us Challenge:  Anything Goes using a metal die.

Gem of a Craft Challenge:  Anything goes.

QKR Stampede:  Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by and have an awesome day!

Cupcakes

 Hi Everyone,

sharing with you my latest DT card for Polkadoodles Challenge. I used Cherry chocolate Cream Cupcake.

Sounds yummy right? I colored it with copics and added some glossy accents to the cherry to make it shine. I also added some sprinkles to the cupcake for fun. I also used the birthday fun paper because cupcakes and birthdays go together.
