Kraft Plus | August Challenge

I'm playing along again with the Kraft Plus Challenge Blog this month and the August Challenge really got my brain ticking over.




I have always loved the look of white on a kraft background so I decided to keep it simple and reach for my white gel pen, some vellum scraps, a piece of white card, some kraft (of course) and my Silhouette Cameo machine.



Now don't get too excited- all that doodling was done with my Cameo!  I selected some files from the Silhouette store, laid it all out in the software and then used my white gel pen and the sketch function.  Cool huh?




This "Rise and Shine" card is also a cut file from the Silhouette store....


  
I used white pigment ink to stamp the date.



There were a few spots that I had to touch up with my pen, but I love the sketchy look I was able to achieve.




Thanks for stopping by!

Kraft Plus | June Challenge

I don't often get to join in with challenges but I have been following the Kraft Plus Challenges and have been itching to play along.




This month's theme is "In the Jungle" and this conjured up black, white and orange for me.  I also knew I had some scraps of Zebra patterned paper in my stash as well as photos of my eldest son wearing orange.  

The Inspiration Photo featured circle shapes as well, so I decided to create a background using leftover "O" Thickers since my son's name is Oliver.  I also added black chalkboard paint to a chipboard circle piece to lay under my photo.   Some bits and pieces from an older Amy Tangerine collection were the finishing touches.












This was a fun challenge to do and I hope to be able to play along at Kraft Plus again soon.
