Grunge Light Tones 6 x 6 Paper Pad

Craft Consortium Essential paper pad Grunge Light Tones. Grunge seems like an unfair description of this gorgeous paper pad, which is full of fabulous textured designs to create perfect backgrounds for your hand made cards and scrapbook pages. This kind of design is perfect when you don't want a proper patterned background, but also don't want a plain colour, it falls somewhere in between. The distressed appearance of the pages not only adds colour variation but also creates the appearance of texture. If you require more texture the 180gsm card is thick enough to use with embossing folders so that you can add a raised design to the coloured paper. The lightest colours are pale yellows and pinks, distressed with white to give a lighter appearance, there are darker yellows and pinks and the two colours are combined on some of the sheets. The slightly darker colours are greens, blues and turquoise, again mainly distressed with white but a few of the pages also have darker distressing which is more like the grunge that the name suggests. These designs are perfect for use in any type of papercraft project and as they are acid and lignin free they are also suitable for scrapbooking. The pad is available in 6 x 6 inch which has 40 double sided sheets of 20 different designs.

Here are a couple of examples of the pages.

Here you can see different shades of yellow distressed with white and just a few touches of pink here and there.

This design is a mixture of pinks and yellows with pale green, again distressed with white to keep the lighter feel to it, a very pretty colour combination.

This is an example of one of the darker sheets, the colours are stronger and there is much less of the white distressing, it also has the appearance of having been splattered with water.
