Back in the day, kraft was simply the color of unloved grocery sacks. Now it’s the hottest neutral in the scrap world! Today my card features the color “kraft” in all its glory.
I started with a piece of paper from Tim Holtz’s Resist Kraft Stash notepad and clear-embossed the dots using the myStampBOX Backgrounds set… | read more »
