Hey Dude - The Kraft Journal Clean and Simple Challenge

Today starts a new challenge at The Kraft Journal, It's a busy time of year, so we thought a CAS challenge would be great! 

 I created a quick and simple boy card perfect for a hey how are ya, or just add a birthday sentiment inside. I created this card for my son's friend in mind. His birthday falls right after Christmas.

I started with a base of Lunch Bag Kraft and added some fun washi tape to the bottom of her card. A length of green baker's twine was added to the right side of the card front and tied in a bow at the top.  A rectangle focal panel from Lunch Bag Kraft was cut and mounted with foam tape. The focal panel was then decorated by adding images from Paper Smooches Little Fella such as the skateboard which was stamped over a length of  green washi tape.  The funny little skater dude was stamped and paper pieced using a subtle plaid patterned paper and added to his skateboard.  The final finishing touch was to add the sentiment.  CAS with plenty of "kraft" space showing. :-)

I hope you will play along with our Clean and Simple challenge this week at The Kraft Journal.  All those that participate in our challenges for the month will have a chance to win a $15.00 gift certificate from The Kraft Outlet....and you also get a chance to be considered for The Feature Me Friday artist post on The Kraft Journal blog!

I hope you have a blessed week!
