MM #191 {Chalkboard Technique}

 

Welcome to another awesome challenge at Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge! Kristie is our hostess this week and she's wanting us to incorporate the "chalkboard technique" on your cards in some form - check it out:


I decided to use this beautiful scenery stamp from Stampin' Up and "smudged" some white chalk paint around the treed area with a sponge after embossing the image with winter winter white embossing powder. I love the crisp, sharp look of this card! Awesome challenge, Kristie!!

Be sure to hop on over to see what the rest of the Merry Makers have created for you - they totally blew me away with their gorgeous creations! Link up your card for a chance to be our next Guest Designer!! Did you know that Merry Monday is on Facebook? Come on over and check it out HERE! Happy crafting!

    Since I had no experience with the chalkboard technique I googled it and it seems everyone does words, but I like that you branched out and did trees! Too cool.
