chalkboard writings


The trend right now is the chalkboard technique which I have to admit is a fun and effective technique.  what you do is stamp and emboss with white on black cardstock then smudge some white ink over the card to represent chalk dust.  Easy!  for me I find that the white pigment ink leave too much "chalk dust" so I use VersaMagic cloud white chalk ink pad for my dusting.  Next I tried add some color to my globe with mica inks and it worked.  did some green and blue to represent land and sea.  remember you can click on pic to enlarge
