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.

Adorable! I love the coloring. I haven't tried coloring on craft yet. So many things I want to try...so little time.

Oh Gail, you crack me up!! I'm an "expensive" friend am I?? Too funny! But I know exactly what you mean. You see, I look at all the hens' TKT entries and then off I go to purchase their images too!! LOL!! Oh yes, it works both ways!! Take for instance this cutie pie!! WOWZERS, this is fantastic!! I LOVE coloring on Kraft and the texture you have here actually resembles fur no less!! Too cool!! And doesn't stitching on Kraft resemble the stitching on leather?? I LOVE that look! FABULOUS card Gail and thanks so much for playing along in my That's Krafty Thursday challenge!! {{{hen hugs}}}
