Welcome to day two of Kraftin' Kimmie's September Release! Today we have an adorable
set of wee carolers from Cheryl Grant (and yes, they are CLEAR stamps! )~
I used two of the sweeties here, and put them in a snowy scene.
These colors were used as I wanted a bit of a vintage feel to the image/card. The carolers are colored with E40-44, with the exception of their skin and red highlights. The scarves are paper pieced.
I used the sketch over at Sweet Sunday Sketch~
I have to give Sandy Allnock credit for the background technique. I had colored the girls, but was unsure of how to do the background; last week I spotted a snowy scene of Sandy's and new that was 'it'.
While the KKS image is brand new, the snowflake embellies, sequins and diamond bling are very old stash. It always feels good to use up a bit more or the old 'stuff'. I am linking up to both Jingle Belles and Shopping our Stash.
The amazingly talented team has lots to share with you using this adorable set; don't forget to
leave a little love as you hop along, for a chance to win some KKS kash!
