Crafting with Kraft at Gingersnap Creations

The new color challenge over at Gingersnap Creations is KRAFT!  I've been using kraft more and more lately.  I particularly love juxtaposing kraft with the "finer" things in crafting, like rhinestones and silk - the combo of "pretty" and "rustic" just floats my boat, LOL!  For this card, I white-embossed a bunch of images around the perimeter of a kraft card base.  On top, I layered a bird image (Artistic Outpost) on top of old text and robin's egg blue paper.  For the background of the image, I tried out my new Glimmer mist colors (a combo of greens, blues, and pinks), so it has a shimmery effect in real life.  I finished off the layers with a little silk ribbon, some teensy rhinestones, and a swirly paper-punched border.

If you like crafting with kraft, there are a bunch of fabulous examples over on the blog, so you'll want to check them out. For all you scrapbookers...there are some great scrapbook layouts on kraft, too..... :)
