Hi! Krafty girl Jasmine here again, hosting this challenge all about the boys!!
I think I'm not the only one around who has some difficulties finding inspiration for making cards that are ment to be given to a boy or a man.  So I thought this is a perfect challenge for us, and to get inspiration from one another.

So this is my card, using the guy from the set "Let's Celebrate!" 

Spotlight on Krafty Girl Danielle!

Hey yall!  Krafty Girl Tangii here, next up on our fairly NEW feature here called SPOTLIGHT ON A KRAFTY GIRL is Danielle!  We've sent a list of "We wanna know's" to each of the Krafty Girls and the beginning of each month we'll share their answers with you!  

This is Miss Danielle...

  

1. How long have you been krafting and what got you started?  My addiction to paper crafting began about  13 years ago.  I was browsing through the magazines while waiting for a prescription and picked up a scrapbooking magazine and I was hooked.  I started card making about 6 years ago after a friend invited me to a stamping party. I’m still continually amazed at how I’ve evolved in this hobby.  I thought I was the most un-artistic person in the world.

2. What is your favorite Reason/Season to kreate?  Christmas cards are my favorite to make – followed closely  by Halloween (cute not spooky).

3. What is your favorite krafty tool?  I absolutely could not imagine crafting without my Big Shot.
4. What is your “go to” source for inspiration when your mojo has taken a vacay?      When my MOJO takes a vacay I start browsing through the gallery submissions of some of my favorite challenges and visit blogs for inspiration.  There’s so much talent out there!

5. What is your favorite paper line? I am a self-professed paper-a-holic! I have way more than I can probably ever use and seem to still always want more – lol!  My favorite lines at the moment are Doodlebug  Designs and Echo Park because of their bright and fun designs.

6. What is your favorite coloring medium, type and/or brand (markers, watercolor pencils, chalk pencils, combination of, etc.)?  I LOVE copic markers – that’s my favorite coloring medium.  But I do like to play around with water coloring sometimes too.

7. What is your biggest challenge when krafting? My biggest challenge as far as crafting goes is to remember not to compare myself with others or try to be too perfect with my creations.  It’s about the process and trying new things.  I really want to learn more about mixed media this year.

8. What other hobbies do you have?  My other hobbies include reading and baking (and eating).  I love to be outside in the summer and would really like to have a garden again.

We also asked for some eye-candy!!! We ALL love pictures!!!  Here's a pic of Danielle's Kreative Space!

Next up we have Danielle's FIRST KKS Kreation... This is HANNAH HEARTS, isn't she just the cutest?!?!?  (Hannah is no longer available).

And last, but certainly NOT least, we asked for something using either her favorite Stamp set or her favorite card... Danielle's all-time favorite stamp set is ICE, ICE BABY!.

Well that's a wrap!!!  We hope you enjoyed this Spotlight on a Krafty Girl, we hope you'll tune in every month!  Be sure to check out Danielle's blog, here!  Don't forget to tell her "hi" when ya stop by!

Wonderful Wednesday

It's Wonderful Wednesday time!!  We hope you can play along!!  As always....it's ANYTHING GOES!!  Break out your Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps and get krafty!!

The winner for February WW's is CINDY!  Congratulations Cindy, be sure to email Kimmie for your prize!!

We want EVERYONE to be able to play along so your submission can use ANY stamp and can be any theme, any style, any design and it can be a card, a scrapbook page, an altered item....you name it!!  It must be a NEW creation and you can enter on this post until March 14th at midnight!  At the end of the month one random winner will be chosen from all the submissions for the whole month and will receive a $20 Gift Card to the shop!!!  What do you think.....wanna WIN??  Let's see your krafty stuff!!

In addition to the great Krafty Challenges & Wonderful Wednesday, each month we will post a Sketch.  The sketch will last all month long and if you use it in ANY of our Challenges or WW's during that month you will get an additional chance to win a store gift card!  You do NOT have to use the sketch, it's just a little extra boost for your mojo if ya need it!  Here is March's sketch...
