Whimsy mini hop - Kenny K

Hello and welcome to Day 6 of our September Rubber Die Release Showcase!

Each mini blog hop will have a new release prize hidden somewhere along the way and you will have 24hrs to enter each prize draw.

To be entered into today's mini blog hop prize draw, be sure to leave a comment on ALL of the DT's posts listed below by 9.00am EST tomorrow morning. All winners will be announced  on the Whimsy Inspirations blog after 12noon on September 21st.

Today we are showcasing the new Kenny K stamps and Raindrop Echo Designs sentiment stamps. To take a peek at today's fabulous new release creations by the Design Team, please click on the links below...


On to my card - I used Teen Idol image stamp and sentiment from Fun Life Ticket set.

The image was coloured with Whispers water-soluble markers using no-black-lines approach. It was kind of a challenge to myself because Kenny K images have such strong striking lines and not depending on those while colouring is a wee bit tricky to put it mildly.

Please promise me you will ignore couple of bad smudges where I went in shading and discovered that image wasn't completely dry yet!!!
The papers are from Basic Grey Oliver and Wander pads. I used Whimsy Music Note background to stamp on white twill ribbon.

    Annika, you already know I think your coloring is amazing but your 'no lines' colouring on such an unforgiving stamp is a task most of us wouldn't even contemplate, let alone complete with such skill! Bravo, as always!
