Thankful Chalkboard

Posted on February 9, 2013 12:10 AM by Julie 1 Comment

What an interesting site for today’s Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast (IC375)! After much browsing, I picked this colorful Ottoman. I was inspired by the mix of colors and tried to use some of them in my card.

The images are from Our Daily Bread designs. I inked up the chalkboard image using the Memento inks and stamped it on a large, lt blue index card. I used a spiral punch down the side then attached it to a couple of layers before the dotted designer paper. The tag was stamped with one of the Thank You Sentiments and punched with a word window punch. I added a bow and attached my tag to finish my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Stamps: Our Daily Bread designs – Thank You Chalkboard, Thank You Sentiments

Paper: lt blue index card, dk purple, lt blue, dp (Basic Grey)

Ink: Memento grape jelly, tangelo, ladybug

For today’s Technique Challenge (TLC410), we were to use a Chalkboard Technique. Apparently I didn’t read or follow all of the instructions. Oh well. I did use white ink on my black “chalkboard”, but I bypassed the embossing and smearing of the “chalk”.

The images are from Our Daily Bread designs and the frame image and die cut around the sentiment are sneak peeks of some new stuff being released tomorrow.

I used the chickadee image and matching die for the little bird and the sentiment and antique label were stamped w/ the chalk ink and die cut. I used a labels 8 and rectangle dies for the panels behind the chickadee. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25. I sent this to our Avian Vet’s office, who were all so kind & took such good care of Odie, our beloved bird, when he was sick. I was touched that it was still on display in their office months & months later.

Thank so much for stopping by!

This is something I haven’t done in a long while…combine 3 Splitcoast Challenges! WT380 (use a window or door), F4A122 (piercing), and IC342! I have a window on my white plank house, I added some piercing on the banner and sentiment and my inspiration is This cute picture w/ the house and trees.

The images are from Our Daily Bread designs. I used a Cheery Lynn window die and a doily lace border punch for the the window. I added a little punched teacup just for fun. The white plank house was done with a plastic frosting embossing sheet I found in the baking section of my local craft store. It’s only one piece of clear plastic, but if you use a tan embossing mat under the card stock, it works just like an embossing folder. I used a lt sand marker in the recessed areas. The grassy border was stamped at the bottom and I added some teeny tiny little punched flowers and attached the die cut tree and fussy cut picnic basket. I sponged on some green and brown inks onto the tree. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
