I love using kraft paper so today's challenge was a winner for me. It did help me get inspired for my card for the VLV August sketch challenge though....thanks!
I know it's a bit early, but I thought I'd make a teacher card today.
For my apple I punched a heart out of whisper white using the full heart punch. I drew on seeds with a black marker and sponged with Antique linen distressing ink. I mounted that on real red and trimmed around for the second heart which I sponged with real red. I cut the stem from crumb cake and sponged with vintage photo distressing ink. The leaf is punched from lucky limeade and sponged with the same.
The rest is fairly simple. I did switch up the sketch a bit putting my vertical panel behind because I wanted my notebook paper to shine.

When I needed to make a card today, this was the first one that came up in my favorites. My compliments. I dont rarely favorite cards because they're either cards I could never case or have tired of the design. Not yours though. Thanks for the inspiration.
