Kraft+ February Challenge

There is a terrific new kid on the block! Kraft+ is a brand new Challenge site and as it suggests, it's all about using Kraft as a base, which I just love doing. The Design Team Inspo totally inspired me with this challenge:


Now this isn't a Mood Board but a colour challenge. The use of all the colours isn't required, although I think I've pretty much covered them all except the pink. And lovely bright, Summery colours they are too :)


I chose to use a photo my DS took while he and his Sister were mucking around at the beach on our recent holiday. I love seeing the two of them having fun together. They hadn't seen each other for almost 2 years so they have had a lot of catching up to do and when they are on holidays together they revert back to their childhood comraderie, which is a real hoot sometimes.

I embossed the title, which is a chippie from WOW as well as embossing some water splotches. The lovely vibrant bags, wood veneer frame and yellow tags are from D-lish Scraps and the Kraft paper & tags are Kaisercraft. I had so much fun doing this and finished it in under 2 hours - a major accomplishment for me.

I hope you can have a look at this all Aussie challenge site and give them your support. Thanks for looking xx
