Irish Friendship Card

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! I'm feeling the 'Luck o' the Irish' with me today, because I'm sharing this sweet card full of spring colors, plaid, and childhood memories from this darling "Lollipop Love" set by Polka Dot Orchard digital stamps. It's not just for Valentines Day. It's versatile for other occasions too! Isn't this cheery and fun??? Love it!!!

​Reminds of those brightly colored sucker pops I used to get from the candy store across the street from my Grandma's house. OH! You heard me right! A kids dream! Am I right? Oh yeah...a sweet little mom and pop general store, but we always called it the "candy store," where all our pennies were spent when we came to visit! And these suckers took me right back to those days! Such sweet memories of me and my little sister filling our small brown paper bags full of 1 cent candies. Oh! Those were the days!

May the 'Luck o' the Irish' be with you
today and always.

Prayers to the world! ~Kim & family

​Joyce C.
is our Winner here at ​My Kraft Kloset, for January 2020! 
Congratulations!!! 

Our theme for this months Blog Hop is...Monochromatic! 
Which means the creation of something made from one color hue or one color family. Fun, right? Well, I'll tell you, this was quite challenging for many of us. It's really hard to just stick to one color family and not add black or some other color, as we love all colors and pretty patterned paper. Shown above are the purple and red color palettes I chose to work with this month. Pretty, right?

My first card is a passionate purple beauty...great for any occasion!

My second card is a fiery red beauty in honor of Valentines or my single gal pals for Galentines Day, Birthday, Graduation, or any occasion!

Thanks for stopping by & Happy Love & Friendship Month! ~Kim

Guest Designing for Polka Dot Orchard + Patriotic Card

Happy Independence Week!!! I'm thrilled to announce I'll be Guest Designing weekly for Polka Dot Orchard in July and August with her fabulous digital stamp collections. I'm honored to be using stamps designed by my crafty friend, Jeanie May Hays, of The Washi Horse Blog, and you may recognize her name from our monthly 'Friends of Unity' blog hops we do together too!

(Pssst...and we will be hoping again this Sat, July 6th)

I totally picked this stamp set at random, not knowing Jeanie designed it, but I just love it and love it even more knowing my friend designed it. Isn't it marvelous? She's such an amazing artist and she says this is a beta fish, which it might be, but I can totally see it being a coy fish too. What do you think? Creativity is up to our imaginations, right? And this set is both feminine and masculine. The possibilities are endless! 

Go check it out today to get this set 'ON SALE' 

and many others thru Monday Morning, July 8th!!!

This card represents everlasting love to the happy couple. Did you know swans mate for life? They do. For this card I mixed two stamp sets together to create this beautiful scene.

​​But before I get started...check back to all of our February Blog Hops to see if you are one of the many Winners and claim your prizes!  Amanda Rhodes is the Winner here at My Kraft Kloset, Feb. 2019 prize!!! Congratulations!!! 

Our theme for this months Blog Hop is...Creativity!!!  Which could mean anything. Right?  So it got me really thinking.  What new thing could I create?  What products haven't I used?  Or what techniques haven't I tried?  So, I decided to use "new to me" products and techniques by combining two different foiling techniques with NO laminator and paper piecing to give you lots of tips too! 

As shown on my "Poppy Girl" card below...

Today's project was inspired my inability to find my laminator. (lol)  As I moved a while back and my laminator is still packed somewhere in my craft room and I can't find it, and I refuse to buy a new one.  But I wanted to try this new trend, so I needed to find new ways to foil without a laminator.  And after putting my thinking cap on and watching lots of videos,  I came up with two ways that worked pretty good with products I already had.

Moose You So Much Card

Hi everybody! It's been a whole year today since my dear sister lost her battle with breast cancer. I will miss her today, forever, and always. She was taken to young and was a mother of twins too, a very special bond we both shared; a very talented graphic designer and an avid card maker; and she just loved the craft world. She never saw a moose in person, but loved them so much. Little did I know this would be the last birthday card I ever made for her. It reminds me of that cute movie "Open Season" and makes me laugh at how silly it was. But brings a smile to my face and makes me think of her. We "Moose you so much" Karla! xoxo

For a complete supply list and tutorial, click "here."

I hope I've inspired you to mix border bunches with embossing folders and how to use pink and plaid together for an Autumn card. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Twin Birthday die cut flip cards

  

 Last week we celebrated my youngest two kids birthdays, who are fraternal twins. And of course I made them birthday cards, but not just any cards. These are fun die cut flip cards, that my boys love, and they are similar, as you can see, but different. Just like them.

Happy Birthday, Boys!
