Kraftin’ Kimmie July Peeks Day #4

   Today is our fourth day of Krafty Peeks for the July Release

 at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps!

 

Today we are sharing a fabulous set from 

artist 
Neda Sadreddin and it’s called…..

LEAPIN’ LIZARDS!

 

These adorable, bright eyed fellows are ready to hang out and have an awesome time with you! And seriously, those sentiments…! 

Check out LEAPIN’ LIZARDS! in so many amazing creations today as you hop around the Krafty Team’s blogs!  You’ll also see the new stencils and hybrid ink along the way!  Be sure to leave some love at each stop on the hop because I’ll be giving away some krafty $$ to the shop! 

You’ll see more of our July goodies tomorrow and then everything will be released after our LIVE Online Release Party on Saturday afternoon at 2pm ET in the Krafty Friends facebook group!  

For now, check out all the creative goodness in today’s hop!

SOO I am of course doing a little Copic Coloring on my little lizard. I love that the sentiments allow him to be a variety of critters! This first one from me is an Iguana (at least the sentiment points that way)

I started by using this months new ink and a second color to create a soft background through the new stencil. Love these partial circles so many possibilities! I did let the background over the iguana. I knew 2 things: 1 – Kraftin’ Kimmie inks are Copic compatible so they will not blur or bleed and 2 – I was planning on a green iguana so even with the transparency of the Copics the blue and green inks would work under my coloring.

Very limited colors today! I used the YG series on the iguana, the E35 for the branch he is hanging on and then I used the multilines, white opaque pen (Uni Posca in the background) and glossy accents on the eyes.

Once colored I layered him on a simple card. The leaves I used the stencil to trace the partial circle on green cardstock, then cut them out and cut the smaller sections out of them leaving the leaf shapes.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you are enjoying all the new inspiration from the Krafty Design Team this month!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
