Kraftin' Kimmie Saturday Challenge-Food

Hi everyone! Welcome to another challenge at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps! 

It's Saturday, so it's time for our normal Saturday Challenge, and this week, we have a FOOD challenge. Now, I know what you are thinking, but a very important, very TALL Elf once told us that there are four major food groups. 

For my card, I used the super cute Candy Cane Kisses set, which I LOVE!!! I paired him with some Carta Bella Bundle Up paper and various cardstocks and embellishments.
I also used the sketch...but I turned the circle into a rectangle.....so it's sort of the sketch...anyway, it's pictured below!

We always enjoy your creations so be sure to submit them so you can have a chance to WIN a $20 gift card to the Shop!! Show us your stuff!! In keeping in line with the rest of our challenges (Wonderful Wednesday and our NEW Krafty Scrappy Challenge), we will be drawing one winner per month from all Saturday Challenge entries to win a $20 gift card!! You can enter as many times per month as you'd like!!

Have you joined the Kraftin Kimmie's Krafty Friends fb group??  It's the best place to keep up with all of the goings on as well as sharing YOUR creations and getting inspired by other Krafty Friends' creations!!!

There will be no Frugal Friday this week, because Boss lady Kimmie has something fabulous up her sleeve for December 26th... stay tuned!

In addition to the great Krafty Challenges &Wonderful Wednesday, each month we will post a Sketch.  The sketch will last all month long and if you use it in ANY of our Challenges or WW's during that month you will get an additional chance to win a store gift card!  You do NOT have to use the sketch, it's just a little extra boost for your mojo if ya need it!  Here is December's sketch..
