Krafty Chicks Challenge #770: ANYTHING GOES

  Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

This week on the Krafty Chicks Challenge blog, it's ANYTHING GOES week. One of the easiest challenges because you can have any theme you like. It can be a card, (fancy fold even), a treat package, home decor, or a scrapbook page. Literally ANYTHING GOES!

 #770 ANYTHING GOES


This time around I created a kind of thinking of you card. As I was digging through my many pushed to the side and almost forgotten old Paper Pumpkin kits, I stumbled upon this one. I was a little stuck on what to create as an alternative then this layout popped in my head. I wanted to use the negative of the label die cut as a frame. When I adhered the foliage, it got lost and was quite plain so I traced them with a black marker to make them stand out a bit more. Love it! Easy technique!

Products used

  • Stamp set: March 2022 Paper Pumpkin- Beyond The Horizon
  • Card Stock: Kit products
  • DSP: kit products
  • Ink Pads: VersaMark (102283), Crushed Curry (147087)
  • Stampin' Write Markers: Basic Black
  • Accessories: Blending Brush (153611), White Embossing Powder (165679), Matte Black Dots (retired), Black Stampin' Dimensionals (150893)

 

I like to keep the inside of the card clean and simple with just a little DSP and a coordinating die cut. The envelope included in the kit was perfect on its own and needed no alterations.
