Kraft colored ink?

[*suzanne*]

Hi! Does anyone know of an ink similar in color to the kraft cardstock? Would sahara sand from SU! do the trick or is there another shade/company I should look for?

Thanks!!

I've stamped a solid stamp on Kraft-
Sahara Sand gives a greener tone. Creamy Caramel gives an orangey tone.
Hope the attachment works.

Edit to give link because I didn't get the insert process correct.

thanks for posting this. at a friend's house friday night i tried out the sahara sand and i noticed the green tone as well.
i will keep my eye out for kraft colored ink and post it if i find it. thanks!

You might want to think about the new Soft Suede color. It is just a gorgeous medium brown and I bet stamped off once it would be just gorgeous on Kraft cs.

Haystack, a Palette ink, looks a lot like the colour of Kraft.

i have it at home. I'll stamp a sample for you later if you want!?

the other issue is that there are several brands of kraft cardstock, and they are all a bit different. the perfect thing would be for the manufacturers of the cardstock to make coordinating ink!

I use Haystack as well if I want a Kraft color, it's extremely close!

I've added a Soft Suede in the following link:

The other thing you can do is stamp with Versamark, and you'll just get the 'wet look' version of the cardstock.

Here's a pic of haystack next to PTI's kraft paper.



hope this helps! It's not exact, but a pretty good match!

I'm at work so can't do a pic right now, but I've used Distress Old Paper on kraft.
