It’s time for another round of Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps release previews!  Today starts things off, and the Krafty Girls have got some fantastic inspiration for you, showing off the latest release.

As you will see, Annie Rodrigue has gone for a fantasy/fairytale vibe with her new set of designs.  I LOVE them all!  Utterly gorgeous, and so much fun to colour.  So much so that I will be showing you one every day for the next four days! 

Release day is Sunday 18th July, and the stamps will of course be be available at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps direct.  For those of you in the UK /Europe you will be able to buy them at Quixotic Paperie (they will be in stock and ready to go).  Also, for those of you in the US, you will find the stamps at Susana’s Custom Art & Card Design!   So, whereever you are – you can get yourself some Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps goodness!  Phew!

So, here’s my card!  I’ve used Annie’s new SWAN PRINCESS image.   I apologise for the photo quality – the light here is awful today, the weather is rather miserable for July!!

The theme for SCACD T.I.O.T this week is CLEAN & SIMPLE!  We want to see you using mainly white/cream for your cards, with just one pop of colour (images may be multi-coloured).  Great challenge for me, as I hardly ever do this!!

Gorgeous image, no?  Don’t forget, she will be available on Sunday from the stores listed at the start of my post! 

I coloured SWAN PRINCESS with Copic Markers.  She was stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black ink (also available at SCACD in the US).

I covered her wings in Shimmerz Angel Wings paint and part of her dress in Shimmerz Blingz Pixie Dust (Shimmerz are also available at SCACD in the US).

I used the Bow-Easy Bow Tying Template for the little double-looped bow (Bow-Easy also available at SCACD in the US).  The gorgeous flourish/swirl in the top corner was created using a Bazzill Basics Jewel Template – Fantasy Flourish and yep, Viva Decor Glitter Liner to create the glittery half-pearls.  LOVE how the Glitter Liner holds its shape when it dries.  I used Viva Glitter Liner in Silver for the swirl and also to accent Swan Princess’ crown  (Viva Decor Glitter Liners and other products are also available at SCACD in the US).
