June Kraft+Plus....

To be honest, the new challenge over at Kraft+ really threw me this time and I didn't think that I would enter the Challenge this month.  However my desire to play along overtook any hesitation I had about joining in. Here is the Challenge, so you can understand why I was hesitant to join in:


Don't get me wrong...this is a lovely inspo board but the circles and animal print criteria were going to take me out of my comfort zone. Firstly I don't possess any animal print paper or stamps, and I could have downloaded some from the internet I guess. BUT, I came across some photos of my DD's road trip through Portugal, and when you see the Campervan it becomes pretty obvious why I just had to use these photos :)  This is me thinking outside the square....

"Portugal Road Trip"


I mean really! What a cool, zebra-striped vehicle! I even managed to draw some zebra stripes on the little wood-veneer car.


I this beautiful map is from Echo Park "Reflections" by Lori Whitlock and it just happens to include Portugal and Spain....how convenient! So I fussy cut out the coastline to add to my Kraft background.


The compass is a die from Kaisercraft.


And I love this little Geo tag die also from Kaisercraft. So I've covered the criteria for this Challenge without too much angst.  Thanks for looking and have a great week! xx

  7. hahahahahaha It would be a challenge for me too. I hate animal prints, and I don't own any either. The photo is so clever and that is what it is all about. Thinking outside the box. A fabulous take on the challenge.
