Kraft it Up May challenge.....


Sorry that this is going up a bit late - Mel over at KIU has been away for a few days, so I have been waiting for her to put this months challenge up on the KIU blog before putting it here.


So, for this months challenge....

You need to use KRAFT (of course) and you must create your OWN PAPER, whether it is your background paper (Kraft) or you opt to create some patterned paper to use on your page.


This must be created by stamping, misting, masking or painting and you can use any medium inks, glimmermist, texture paints, gel mediums, paints, crackle paints etc...

Check out what the CT have come up with on the KIU blog....to get some ideas to get your inspiration flowing!!

Here is my sample layout....


I used glimmermist & the leftover piece of chipboard from a used up Heidi Swapp alpha sheet as a mask to create my background on the kraft cardstock.
I'm sure we all have some of these laying around.....so easy to do too!

Lots of great prizes up for grabs again this month.....so why not give it a go!?!?!
