Seize the Birthday Challenge - Kraft + 1


 
 I do like Kraft.  Not sure why I don't use it more actually.  I'm good with this challenge.

I debated on what color to use, and finally chose purple.  I wanted to challenge myself to use a "different" color for myself.  I have to say, I really do dislike purple.  LOL

Such a basic card, but it will definitely work for my masculine card stash!  All products used are retired; a cover plate from MFT, and the bfly from Spellbinders.  The HB I don't even know who's it is.  Sheesh.

Your turn!  Come on over to Seize the Birthday Challenge and play along.  While kraft +1 is optional, being a birthday is not.

I LOVE the texture from the layering of your background Vicki. Your butterflies in purple are so pretty and that colour combo is wonderful. I've had fun joining your team at SPG! xx

I am partial to backgrounds that are textured like yours is and that combination of colors is amazing. I think that we are surprised by all of the colors that go well with kraft.

Well I believe that you've used the kraft color with the most perfect pairing in purple! Can't go wrong with a butterfly either! I love it!

I'd love to know whose kraft this is, Vicki - it's a wonderful dark tone that mine seems to be missing!
LOve it with your purple!

Linda said...

Your card is fantastic with the purple. One of my favorite colors and butterflies are a favorite of mine too.

For someone making a card with unknown a disliked color, I must say you've aced it! I love the tone-on-tone butterfly, but especially on the kraft die cut background - it looks just great!

I’m with Jules, my first thought was also waffle cone! And the colour combo reminds me of Cadbury's chocolate. But the butterfly makes it look like trellis. Love that hb diecut!
