Dare 2B Artzy on Kraft and White


Good morning friends! I have a little Tuesday morning inspiration from Dare 2B Artzy today. I decided to play with a little Kraft colored cardstock along side of my white cardstock today. It is always nice to see direct comparisons to me so you can really see the differences!

Here is the image on one of my go to Copic white cardstocks. Simple coloring small amounts of shading on the vase, but very minimal.

And here is the image on Kraft paper. Believe it or not the same colors were used on this copy of the image, Because Copic ink is transparent the Kraft paper shines through and significantly changes the look of the colors. Another major difference when working with Kraft paper is the softness. Kraft paper tends to be significantly softer then a smooth white cardstock so the advantage is blending basically takes care of itself. Colors melt into each other. The disadvantage is the bleeding. The colors are moving fast and far, great for blending harder to keep inside the lines. Just something too be aware of when experimenting with Kraft.

Both images went on to beautiful D2BA papers.

I used the same patterned papers on the second card in a little different design, but love how the Kraft really changes the feel and look.
