Less is More #427 - Chalkboard Technique

Hello and welcome to Saturday and another new challenge over at Less is More!

We have a lucky dip challenge - check it out:



Card #1
This card was used by simply white embossing onto black card and then using a sponge and white ink to create the look of a blackboard (that's what we call them in Australia). I added the sequins for a pop of colour

Card #2
I continued with the same colour scheme and created a card without a sentiment so it could be used down the track. I thought this stamp paired well with the blackboard as it looks like this cool cat is at school :)

I would like to enter my cards over at the following challenges -
Card #1 - Crimbo Crackers (Anything Christmas Goes), Watercooler Wednesdays (Occasions), Mix it Up Challenge (Embossing)
Card #2 - CRAFT (Back to School), Krafty Chicks (All Occasions), Paper Funday (Back to School), Show us your Pussies (Furrything Goes)


Thanks for popping in today and I hope to see you over at the challenge blog :)

    Love these, Kylie. Great idea to swipe the white ink on the diagonal. Great effect. Love the bling too!

    Two great cards Kylie. Love the addition of the gems on the second one. We call them blackboards in the UK too, or at least us oldies still do lol.
