The Kraft Journal Challenge #4
Normally I steer well clear of yellow and orange, but they just needed to be on this card. It's a "ground hog or furry little critters" challenge at The Kraft Journal. Can't believe it's already time for ole Punxsuatawney Phil to pop his head out again!
For my card I've used a base mat and decorative mat of Kraft Outlet Brown Kraft cover weight cardstock. The little kitty cat is a Penny Black stamp that I colored with Copic markers. Bet you've got a cute furry critter in your stamp collection. Mix it with some kraft paper or Kraft Outlet products and link it up for this week's challenge. You have until 6:00 PM Sunday. You just might grab a Top Three spot and you'll be in the running for a $20.00 voucher from the Kraft Outlet store. Trust me, you won't have ANY trouble spending it. :-)
Can't wait to see your creations!

This is so, so cute, Tracy! That kitty cat image totally makes me smile. Love your coloring job, and love the colors you mixed with the kraft papers here.The scalloped mat is fabulous, and I love the flowers and the ribbon wrap. Looks like a little present. :)
You know, I just ADORE kitties ... and this one is no exception to that rule... I totally adore how you colored her and the whole card is beautifully composed... LOVE IT!
An adorable card. Such a sweet stamp and like the scalloped mat. Coloring is great ... always enjoy stopping by to see what you have done.
Oh Tracy, now isn't this just the cutest ever and you did an amazing job for usually steering away from orange! You would never know it because of how you matched up everything and the naturalness of all your coloring etc. I just smiled so much when I saw this, and how alive you made it come with how you colored (not filling in EVERY space - as I do lol) and then looked at the GORGEOUS frilly dilly she is on and ribbon and fleurs. I gulped my latte and was SO thankful for your art this morning! Squishy hugs - Have the greatest day, Samara
And again this is one FAB card Tracy! Love your use of colours, they're so warm and rich! Again a perfect match of everything! Take care, Ira
