Monkey Business on candle at Kraftin' Kimmie

 Good morning krafty friends! 

It's June, and that means it's time for a brand new

SKRAPPY CHALLENGE

with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

 The theme of course is ANYTHING BUT A CARD!

For this challenge you can make anything that strikes your fancy....except a card!
So design a new scrapbook page, bookmark, tag, altered item, planner page, art journal, ATC cards...whatever you like!

I decided to decorate a candle for a friend's birthday. I started by stamping and colouring my little scene with pencil and Copics. I started with my trusty Prismacolor pencils for the vines but it wasn't bright enough so I switched to Copics.

I then cut around the monkeys to leave as little white as possible. I cut a space in the candle to be able to put a tealight (battery one).

You will have to excuse me... it's really hard to take pictures of a continuous scene!!!

Let's start with the turquoise monkey...

Then the orange one...

Ok, you can see a tiny little bit of the purple one...

Yeah, purple monkey is up!!!

And here you can see purple and turquoise monkeys having fun!!!!

Here's some fabulous inspiration from our Design Team this month!

Just make sure to include some Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps products and make sure it's a new creation!  As soon as we have at least five people playing along, we'll be giving away a $10 gift voucher to the krafty shop as the monthly prize!  

You have until Monday, July 3rd to enter, and you can submit as many new creations as you like for more chances to WIN!  Also be sure to share your designs on the Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps' Krafty Friends facebook page because we love to see your stuff!

Check out all the details from the Krafty Team below and be inspired to get skrappy!!
