Challenge #15 - Peek a Boo!!

Welcome back, krafty stampers!!! You all are fabulous and we so love seeing your creations for our challenges. Last week's challenge was a doozy, but you rose to the challenge and designed some amazing cards!!

The random winner of last week's challenge is......Sally Cicada!!! Congrats girlfriend, and be sure to email me with your mailing information so I can get your rubber out to you!!

This week's challenge is brought to you by Guest Krafty Girl, Melanie!! When she said she wanted us to do an 'aperture card', I said, 'A what?'...hehe. After she explained that she was just using her big words for 'window card', I got it! haha! So we'd like to see some Kraftin' Kimmie images peeking out from some window cards this week!!

The random winner from this week will receive the Bird Fairy image and coordinating sentiment stamp, as featured on Melanie's gorgeous card!! If you play along with us this week, be sure to link us up in the comments of this post, and when you upload to Splitcoast, be sure to use the keywords KKSC15 and KraftinKimmie (all one word) and your design will show up in our Kraftin' Kimmie gallery!!!

Also, at the end of this post, you will be directed to Krafty Girl Andrea's blog, where she has done a lovely little tutorial on how to do a window card using your Nestabilities!!

We were thrilled to see so many wonderful cards for last week's colour combination! They were all fantastic! And our random winner is.....Annemarie!!! Congratulations and please email me with your mailing information, so I can get your stamp right out to ya!

On to this week....Guest Krafty Girl, Donna Wardle is this week's hostess extraordinaire!! She decided that her challenge for everyone this week, would be to use NO EMBELLISHMENTS on your designs! Yes, you read that right! Now believe me, if *I* can do it, so can you!! I started shaking at the mere thought of a card with no ribbon!! Or a card with no brads...no flowers....no bling!
