That's Krafty Thursday #50

I don't know why I don't use this craft card stock more often.  I love the effect. I haven't entered many challenges lately and  The Spotted Chick has a Thursday challenge at least once a month using craft card stock. And... this is her 50th challenge and she has challenged everyone to make it 50+ entries.  Here is my mine.

This is the Flourishes Gerbera Daisies.  Mine are pink.  I first stamped them on craft card stock. Then I colored really hard with white pencil on the daisies and then highlighted them with Copic #RV14 Begonia Pink. I also used Copics for the green.  You have to do a lot of testing, because the colors are not always what you expect when coloring on craft card stock.  I used pink thread to stitch, and mounted the daisies on black and two shades of pink.

Happy That's Crafty Thursday #50 Challenge.

I didn't know that!

I didn't know you could color on kraft card stock.  Well, I knew you could, but I didn't know, it would turn out so good.  And I must be a little clairvoyant.  I just bought a couple sheets last week, then The Spotted Chick announces "That's Krafty Thursday#46"  challenge using Kraft CS.  I'm entering Puppy Love.

I buy the least expensive paper I can find, so maybe if this was a better quality it would have turned out even better.

This is a digi that purchased from Stitchybear Stamps.  I used a combination of Copics and pencils. The stamp in the corner is TM Designs. I filled in the heart with red Stickles.  I cut him out with a Spellbinders die and mounted him on some PTI paper cut with a different Spellbinders die.  A little (not so straight) stitching around the edge and the white heart in the lower corner to finish.
