DT Post for Creative Inspirations: Use Kraft

Good morning all! I do hope you are well and enjoying the sunshine - its cold still though isn't it?

At creative inspirations there is a new challenge starting today - we're asking you to use Kraft. Sounds pretty good to me!
This week's prize is from CEDAR CHEST DESIGNS who are offering a $10 GIFT CERTIFICATE!






Here's what I did - I used the Willow Heart Tree image:


I've coloured the image with promarkers and cut it out then added to an embossed piece of card having added white embossing powder to the clouds. The card base I've made from paper by scoring at 1 inch, 2 inches, 4 inches, 6 inches and then 10 inches. Finally I've added some more kraft that I've cut with a memory box die for the vegetation and a spellbinder die for the birds.

I'd like to add this card to the following challenges:

Cupcakecupcakecraftchallenges: Get your kraft on
PFPpromarkerchallenge: Fantasy
Papertake weeklypapertakeweekly: Kraft
Pin and Tackpinandtack: Anything goes


Thanks very much for dropping by and for any comments you may leave. I am off to Nottingham today for a few days with my girls - so if I don't drop by your blogs for a couple of days - please forgive me - I'll get there eventually! Big Hugs Rachel xx
