Kraft Outlet DT Reveal for "White on Kraft" Challenge

 

Jan Del Bone

Jan's white on kraft card begins with a Kraft Note Card, that was stamped and embossed in white.  A white card stock was dry embossed and adhered above the lacy image.  Jan added an embossed Kraft card stock buckle, with a rubbing, and some ribbon run through, and tied in a knot.  Lastly, Jan included a Tim Holtz flower made from Kraft and Black card stock, with a bow of  Natural Hemp cord.  Stop by and say hello at Jan's blog, chai tea 'n me !



Tammy Hobbs

For today's "White on Kraft" challenge, designer Tammy, created a card where she used the letterpress technique to impress white ink onto the Lunch Bag Kraft cardstock.   Next Tammy stamped a white rose onto Lunch Bag Kraft cardstock and embossed with her heat tool to really make the flower pop off the kraft.  A little butterfly of  Lunch Bag Kraft cardstock was added to the flower adding a sweet tiny pearl to the center. Tammy wrapped a length of of White Twill Tying Tape around the card front and tied in a bow further embellishing with a triple Black Baker's Twine bow, fancy white button and pearl.  The sentiment was stamped in Kraft ink onto white cardstock adding some lace trim and pearls to the bottom.  A final finishing touch includes a paper heart border added to the top.  Please view Tammy's blog, Creating Somewhere Under The Sun to view additional pictures and information on the card she created for the challenge today.

It seems creative team member Becky Garrison has some babies on their way in her family, so when she thought of white on kraft, she thought eyelet lace and white flowers!  This cute baby gift bag was made using the Small Kraft Paper Sack, a little over a yard of white eyelet lace (1 1/4" wide), a few Petaloo paper flowers with rhinestone centers, and about 18" of pink polka dot grosgrain ribbon.  Leave the bag flat (unopened) and start at the bottom.  Place one 3 1/2" long strip of lace at the bottom of the bag and draw a straight line just where the top of the lace should go.  Then, using a ruler and pencil, move up the bag, making a line every 3/8" until you get about 2" from the top.  Fold over about 1 1/2" of the top of the bag (folding toward the side with the lines), and draw a line about 1/4" from the very top (serrated edge) of the bag.  Using red line tape (Inkssentials, Scor-Tape, Glue Arts Ribbon Adhesive, etc.) place a line across the bag just below each of the pencil lines.  Then, one at a time, remove the covering from the tape and add a 3 1/2" strip of the lace.  Once you have done all the lace on the bag, then folded over the top of the bag and added the last piece on the folded over piece, punch two 1/4" holes about 2 1/2" apart on the folded top, and add a pretty ribbon, tie a bow so that the ties cascade down the front of the lace.  Next add a few pretty flowers or other bling, and you are done!  You can find more in depth instructions and photos on Becky's blog at Becky Garrison Paper Crafts.
