Double up at KennyK

Happy Sunday Everyone,

Time for a new challenge at KennyK's Krafty Krew, our them this week is

Double up

We would like you to use two KennyK images


For my DT card, I decided to go with a Birthday card for a man.  Papers are from Authentique Genuine Collection and Kraft cardstock inked with Gathered Twigs distress inks.  I added antique silver adhesive stones , jute ribbon and some jute cord.  Big challenge for me is no flowers....


My images are Jessi Jane and Cheyenne and they are colored with Copics.  I first printed Cheyenne, masked her and then printed Jessi Jane.  I made several test runs on regular photocopier paper until I got the perfect scene I wanted.  I have to admit that this was super fun to do.  My sentiment is from Inkadinkado Thoughts for the day set.

Skin E13, E11., E00, E000, R20, E07

Pretty in Pink at ABC

Good day

We have a new challenge staring today at ABC Challenge blog, our theme is

P for Pretty in Pink

Our sponsor for this challenge is My Favorite Thing
Fresh, fun and distinctive Clear Stamps and Die-namics dies



For my DT card, I used a combination of Graphic 45 papers from Le Romantique and A Ladies Diary collections.  My Corset is not a die, it's from a template, I found all the details on how to make it on Gabrielle Pollaco blog.  She is amazing, so much talent.


My Image is cut out from Graphic 45, Le Romantique 8x8 paper pad, I added 3 coats of Utee to give it the broken glass effect.


I used  3 pcs from my Sew Nifty Die-Namics dies and Fran-taged using Shabby White, love how it turned out


I did not have the correct pink flowers for my card, so I used white flowers sponged on some Tattered Rose Distress ink and a light water spray.  The flourish is also a Die-Namic die called Leafy Flourish.
