Kraft Outlet Design Team Reveal



Audrey Pettit

 For this week's Christmas in July challenge, Audrey created a card that mixes and matches lots of different cardstocks from The Kraft Outlet for a neutral, yet eye-catching look. She started with a Brown Kraft Coverweight Cardstock base and layered in Buff Ivory Coverweight Cardstock as well as Lunch Bag Kraft Cardstock. The varying tones of color work well together while adding lots of visual depth and dimension. Audrey added a jolly Santa image on a Memo Book journaling page to the center of the card and detailed it with a thin strip of Memo Book, a cardstock border sticker, and Natural Twill Tying Tape. A mini paper clip and jingle bells tied with Hang Tag String finish things off.



Jen Cuthbertson

 Jennifer used a variety of products from The Kraft Outlet to complete this cheery Christmas card! The card features plaid paper, a distressed tag, and Salvage Stickers all on a Kraft cardstock base. A little bit of stamping on the tag and the holly complete this festive greeting. Head over to Jen's blog for more info!

Frances Sylvia

For the Christmas in July theme, Frances decided to go ahead and get a head start on scrapbooking last year's Christmas pictures. She used lots of Kraft Lunch Bag Cardstock on her layout. She first used 1 Large and 1 Small Brown Kraft Shipping Tag to ground her title. In the hole of the shipping tag, she wrapped Red Baker's Twine to add a bit of color. She also used Lunch Bag Kraft Cardstock on a few of the snowflakes and for her journaling. For more close-ups, visit Frances' blog, Forever and a Year.
