Creating with Kraft
Posted: July 11, 2010 Filed under: CAS, Garden silhouettes 5 Comments
I had a chance to browse through the CAS favorites on Splicoast today and found loads of beautiful cards. I was inspired by Karen Dunbrook’s beautiful “white on Kraft” creation and ended up making a stack of Kraft cards, something new for me. Karen’s card was part of the CAS-tastic Krafty Kreations challenge so I will link mine over there also. I didn’t have any Kraft cardstock but found something similar in a promotional booklet from a paper company. I have a friend with a graphic design business who once gave me a stack of sample booklets from paper companies and they are full of interesting papers. I embossed in white and mounted it all on Confetti White which seems to work well with Kraft.
I’ll have some more to show tomorrow.
Supplies:
Stamps: Garden Silhouettes, Thank you Kindly
Inks: Versamark, Basic Black
Cardstock: Confetti White, Basic Black, Kraft
Also: White e.p.

Those promotional booklets are lovely aren’t they?! Great way to recycle to make a beautiful card. I really enjoy your color combination and layout here.
Just beautiful!
Thanks so much for joining us in this week’s CAS-tastic Wednesday “Krafty Kreations” Clean and Simple card challenge!
Love the colour combo Heather and the simplicity of the layout makes this card a winner.
Heather, I found this card on Pinterest ages ago.shortly after I started stamping in 20010. I loved it and several other cards you made back then and ended up subscribing to your blog. You are quite an artist and I love seeing all the techniques you try out. You have a great eye for color and design, that’s why I follow you. I’ve wanted a stamp like this queen Ann’s Lace for a long time and SU now has a new one so I am finally going to try this pannel type card. Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow, Donna, this card is an oldie but it does show how nice white and craft look together. So glad it inspired you and you now have a suitable stamp to try the technique yourself.
