Chalkboard Love

February 15, 2013


For a quick Valentine mini album & my 1st giveaway post, please click here.


I noticed the chalkboard trend floating around quite a lot, and I wanted to try it for the longest time. So this week, I took some of my favorite Unity stamps and my white Tsukineko Brilliance Archival ink and gave it a go. Here's what I came up with!


I had punched the scallop borders out of a pink patterned paper using my American Crafts Knockouts punch. Love this punch as the kit comes with 5 different punch patterns! The bow I made it fluffier by folding it and using some glue dots and finished it with a pinky button.

Oh, and did you know I am having my first ever GIVEAWAY here? Come and do join in the fun! Thanks.
