You Are Capable Of Amazing Things

Kraft And Purple

Hi scrappers! This week I bring you a page featuring an extreme close-up portrait my husband took of me several years ago. I think this photo was taken at the beach but I don’t remember for sure. Purple is my favorite color so I coupled Kraft with a pretty lavender color and some pale blue highlights. I really like how the page turned out.

I started with a piece of grid printed paper from the Craft Smart Kraft Basics stack. This is a really great stack for people that gravitate towards kraft. It contains lots of patterns that make for interesting backgrounds while still having kraft as the prominent color.

I then used a white gel pen to draw some squiggles and doodles. I used a double-sided piece of paper by Bo Bunny and tore off the corner pieces to embellish the page. I cut some squares from the opposite side that featured purple roses and placed them behind my photos. I used a tag by Bo Bunny and placed a piece of purple cardstock behind it to make the laser-cut details easier to see. I added some stickers from a sticker book by Shimelle and a mini ruler embellishment along with a pale blue watering can by One Canoe Two. Some silk flowers and polka dot buttons complete the page.

This page was created for Kraft Plus Challenges where the May prompt was faces. This inspired me to scrap the photo that featured my face so predominately as well as to use a page from a Bujo pad that had a face. I wish there was more than one because I would have added a second face to the layout if possible.

This page was also made for the More Than Words challenge blog which collaborated with Kraft Plus this month and featured the same prompt of faces.

That’s all for now. Thank you for visiting and I’ll see you next time.
