New Month, New Inspo!

Oooooh I just love the start of the month... especially when it comes to blog browsing!  So much talent and inspiration ... so little time!  lol

Anyway, a quick post today, so I can start browsing.....

The Kraft It Up challenge this month is to incorporate hidden journaling on you page, using Kraft as a base.   Can you guess where my journaling is hidden?  :)

hmmmmm ?

give up?

hehee....

okay, enough fun.  Here it is:

omgosh!!  I even used my own handwriting!!  lol  

This photo is quite a few years old now, but I can't believe I've never scrapped it before.

I just used a Hambly transparent frame with a strip of Kraft glued to the underside as a journaling card.  I then glued this to one segment of the Hambly transparent butterfly spray, which in this case also acts as a handle or pull tab.  To stop it from moving around between my base (the Tim Holtz resist Kraft) and the foreground piece of Kraft, I stuck two lines of large foam dots down on either side of the journaling strip, in between these two pieces of Kraft.  I also sandwiched a large foam dot at the bottom edge of the layout too to stop the journaling from shooting out the bottom of the page.  (I hope that makes sense!)  :)

This layout is pretty much all Prima and Hambly, with one lonesome little Kaiser bloom and the Tim Holtz resist Kraft, which I just LOVE.  It seems to look best when you use a lighter coloured ink over the top too I've noticed.  It shows up the awesome resist pattern better.  And as always, no layout is complete without the use of a CW template somewhere!  The script is a Kaiser stamp with just a tiny smear of gesso on it (I didn't have any white ink!).

So much for my quick post.

Will be back real soon with more.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you picked a winner in The Cup!

Cheers,

Jules
