Faux Chalk technique

From My Heart

Here is another card that I made using the Faux Chalk technique. I embossed the images from the Creative Elements and From My Heart sets in white EP and then drew in some lines and highlights with a white watercolor pencil. I finished it off by sponging on some “chalk smudges” using Whisper White craft ink. I think the doily trim sets it off nicely.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Chalk Talk

The new Annual Catalog is officially live and full of wonderful new things. The Chalk Talk set is one of my favorites! I am kind of hooked on this technique (Faux Chalk) so it is wonderful to have some images that make it quick and easy!

The fussiest part of this card is the bow. I just sponged some “chalk” on Basic Black card stock. You could use chalk if you have it, but I prefer our Whisper White craft pad and a sponge.

I stamped and cut out the image (Black StazOn on Whisper white). There are framelits for this set! Next, I sponged a doily with tea stain and added an embossed border. The vanilla flowers have been smushed into the primrose petal pad to add some color (yes, smushed is the technical term). Love how this one turned out.

I hope you get to stamp today!
