Well I dediced to have a go at the Inspiring Inkin’ Challenge which can be found here http://www.inspiringinkinchallenges.blogspot.com/ and this fortnightly’s challenge was the Chalkboard Technique.
I stamped my image from “One of A Kind” stamp set onto basic black cardstock with White Kraft ink, then using my pastels and a dauber I added colour to the inked image. I used Rose Red and Regal Rose Pastels. My greeting is from the Sale-a-bration set “Vintage Labels” stamped with White Kraft ink. I punched a 1/2″ circle from Rose Red Designer Series Paper and added this with a Dimensional to the centre of the flower image. I attached a piece of Silver Elastic Cord with a bow to the lower section of my card, added Silver Eyelets using my Cropadile to the top to balance it and used the Corner Rounder on the top two corners. I inked the edges of my card with Rose Red ink using a dauber.
