Terrie, thank you for hosting and like your kraft challenge. Your card is very nice.

Trudi, I like your card immensely! I wonder how many dandelions I caused to grow in our yard because I blew the seeds around. Sorry Dad!

Trudi, I love your crisp and clean "make a wish" card!

I've wanted to try a technique I saw on Splitcoast Stampers a while ago called white washing and this provided the perfect opportunity. Kind of messy to do, but I like the results. The half sheet of Kraft I used ended up giving me two cards! (Plus, I finally used a SU stamp set that I bought from Marilyn a while ago. Love it!)

Here is my card or book page...whichever it needs to be. The printed edge is actually a flap that opens out and has a pocket that you can put money or photos or tickets (whatever you like) into. I may put in into one of my books. I have two more that are almost finished that could be included, too.
