Challenging Myself

More each day

I’m bound and determine to master the use of kraft paper.  I see so many lovely cards made using kraft paper and I just struggle using it for whatever reason.

Color Inspiration: I was inspired to use kraft paper after seeing the color challenge from Cupcake Inspirations this week.  (I must have overexposed my photo a bit as I did use a cream colored cardstock not white as it looks here.)

  1. That’s beautiful use of the Kraft paper and I really love how you used the negative space of the punch to reveal the sentiment. That’s looks fabulous!

  2. I think you’ve mastered Kraft paper! I love it, too, but it did take me a long time to use it well. The image is adorable, you colored them very well. Thanks for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.

  4. Do you know, it took me a long time to use Kraft too – I loved what other people made with it, but not what I made! Somehow it makes me feel better to know others struggle with it too. I think you’ve used it beautifully here – just the right balance. That image is ADORABLE and so wonderfully coloured, and the little label for the sentiment…so very sweet. I love it! So glad you could play with us at Tuesday Morning Sketches this week 🙂
