The mini stamp set we have for you this month is
"Take Time Mini"
This month I'm featuring the chalkboard technique on my cards.
It's a fun and easy technique. So let's get started....get out your chalk............nope..........get out your white inks. I prefer to use my VersaMagic white chalk ink for the powdered chalk effect on my cards but for the actual stamping I like Colorbox white pigment ink and white embossing powder. For these two cards I used a lot of pattern papers behind my images. This cow is just too cute for the farm! and the barn is just full of country charm.
Please continue on to see what Janine has on her country farm.
