Simon Says.........Get Crafty and Use Kraft!

wed-newchallenge-header

It's Wednesday - time for our next Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge!

Simon Wednesday Challenge Blog

This week we're asking you to use kraft somewhere in your creations.  The design team are using some Hero Arts products that they sent us, and we'd love to see you using them, too, but it isn't a necessity to play.



supplies:  Family & FriendsDoodlebug's Kraft in Color pad, gems and pearls. and a star die-cut 

Here's a 2nd card that uses a Hero Arts snowflake die-cut and their Miracle of the Holidays sentiment, stamped in Red Royal ink.



After die-cutting my snowflake, I used the negative and popped it over a red dotted cardstock to mimic the dots in my sentiment.   The red dotted paper is from BoBunny's Very Vintage pad.


Now it's your turn!
