Default SU Kraft paper

I'm stumped on how to use this paper! Have had a whole pack for years and everytime I try and make something with it, I ended up throwing it out. Now I have 1/2 a pack!! Any ideas???? color combos, etc.?

I haven't seen the kraft paper in person so I don't know the exact color but I thought it might be similar to the creamy caramel in this card. I like the color combination in this card that I made for VSN and it might look good with the Kraft paper.

Good luck!

I really like it used as the card and paired with layers like Red, Black and white. Here's a few links to a couple of cards I made using it. I ahve a couple others in my gallery using kraft.

The new catalogue is full of examples using kraft card stock. Here are a few pages: 38, 66, 72, 95, 101, 105, 108, 118, 136, 139, 154, 159 . . . that should get you started. Good luck.

Oh! I LOVE Kraft!!! I goes so well with so much! I have been using it a lot with the white craft pad that the ice blue chalk pad - a shabby chic look. It is super versitile with dark or light colors. My favorite with kraft though is DPT with the white pad.

Kraft paper is very "earthy" and looks lovely when using vines or botanical stamps with it. My favorite stamp set to use if "Petal Prints" and I use some Old Olive ink and Close to Cocoa ink. It's makes for an elegant look.

I love Kraft paper, I use it all the time, it is really versatile, it practically goes with any other color.
