To create the chalkboard look on this card: 1. Embossed a piece of black cardstock with your choice of embossing folder 2. Lightly rub a piece of white chalk over the embossed part 3. Smudge the chalk by rubbing your finger across the top 4. Repeat till you achieve the desire look
I love the way the bright pink roses stand out against the black background -- even dark colors can be used for spring cards!!
Supplies and Tools:
Thank You embossing Folder (Sizzix), Chalk, Tiny Tattered Florals Dies (Tim Holtz), Pearls, Snowflake Punch, Black/White/Pink/Green Cardstock
