just chillin'!

It's time for another Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps challenge and it is hosted this week by yours truly.  My challenge to everyone is to use stitching (real or faux) on our cards.  You know I can hardly create a card with out bringing out the sewing machine so it wasn't too much of a challenge! lol  I used the adorable Oliver for my card along with some Figgy Pudding patterned paper from Basic Grey.  I sponged the edges of my papers with dark chocolate ink and cover a clear acetate snowflake with some white glitter.

I colored Oliver with copic markers and added some dimensional glaze to the cocoa cup and some polar white flower soft below the image.

Every week, if you join in the challenge, you will be entered for a chance to win a free stamp.  Since I am the host this week, you can be entered for a chance to win Oliver.  So, what are you waiting for?! *wink*  Have a great weekend!

Oh I'm so jealous that you get such great results with your sewing machine, Niki! I love the look of the machine stitching on cards but I am just useless with my old clunker of a machine,smile! This card is so sweet...I love the colours and the design and of course sweet Oliver.

I have been so lazy about sewing on cards lately. I love Oliver! I'm off to check him out. I'm doing a penguin theme for my daughter's birthday party.
