The colour kraft challenge......

Hello Everyone and Happy Canada Day! Over at One Crazy Stampers Challenge Blog their challenge this month is "Colour Kraft Challenge". I absolutely love working with Kraft paper. I find the possibilities are endless! You can colour right on kraft or you can emboss, you can do so much!
 I embossed first the background and then in this case, I coloured with prismas the stamped image onto prisma paper. I then cut it out and glued it onto the embossed kraft paper.
We would love you to join in on our challenge over at the One Crazy Stamper Challenge Blog! If you need any inspiration to get you going, check out the wonderful projects the ladies have done, you are sure to be inspired and ready to enter our challenge!

All my goodies I used for my card I purchased at One Crazy Stamper. You can order on-line or you can drop into the store for a visit and see what amazing goodies Lora has!

Both cards are lovely Christine! The bright colors show up so well. It's amazing how you can use that paper, so fun. I love the "new" look you have given your blog, so nice and cheerful! Looks summery too, lol. I know you are up for that! It was 119 degrees here day before yesterday. I didn't even open the door all day! It feels like walking into a heated oven! Happy Canada Day to you! Big Hugs, Joanne.
