Recently Richard Garay, Fun Stampers Journey President and Co-Founder, demonstrated the blackboard technique in this video. It's a quick and easy technique, using black card stock, clear embossing ink, and pan pastels. I remember using chalks for this technique a LONG time ago! :-) This is one of the three cards we'll be making at my April 22nd card class.
For this card I used the balloon paper from the Magical Journey Prints collection (PP-0038) and one of the wonderfully wonky cakes in the To You stamp set (SS-0083). I've never used this stamp set without lots of coloring - so it's a bit of a change for me. I think I like the simplicity.
Don't forget to check out the other A-Z blogs this month. You can find the list on this Facebook page.
I hope you'll come back tomorrow to see what I come up with for C - I have an idea, but that could certainly change between now and then!!
Lovely to see your work. Its great to have creative outlets. Mine is patchwork and in the 14 years I have been doing it, its taken over my life I think. Well almost. Its all I blog about anyway... well just about all.
