samantha walker: August blog hop





Welcome to the Samantha Walker Creative Crafters Team Blog Hop!
You should have arrived here from Samantha's blog!


 

This month's theme is Back to school


Since Chalkboard is all the rage,


I used this magazine for
some inspiration to make my project.

I cut the Someday Vinyl wall art out of black card stock.


I
also used the outer edge of the 9-way die to create the scallop.

 I scribbled chalk on
the card stock and adhered the different colors be hind the black card stock. I
traced all the letters with a white pen, and “replaced” all the centers to the
blacked out letters.  I then went over the
black cardstock with chalk. I then used foam adhesive to adhere it to white
cardstock so it would have a little more pop. I’m really loving this quote and
have it sitting in my dinning room… Hopefully it burns into Kevin’s brain…lol
