Bookmarks with chalk!

Hi There,

Today I am sharing a bookmark that is so easy to make.  You could really customize it to your hearts desire.  I wanted to incorporate chalk and lace into this project.  My focal image cardstock was cream colored, and I used Stamp N Plus Scrap N powdered to give it a little character! 

Stamps:  Unity – Ippity Stamps

Creating Is Fun – Lace & Button

I hope that you will pull out your chalk products, and join in our challenges. 

We would love to see your creations, and we have some great sponsor prizes! 

Thanks for visiting Chalk N Stock!

Until next time,

Tameko

Laugh...

Hey, thanks for stopping by to see my project today...

I love to Laugh so this card was so fitting for me...

I just might have to give it to myself..lol

Can you see the chalk...

It's stardust colored chalk added to some water in a misting spray

It can be added to just about anything

here is the card before I added the chalk spray

I used some paper and card stock from the stash

my new flowers that I got in bulk from I am Rose web site

(plan on waiting a long long time for them, but it is worth the wait, they are perfect)

I got the flowers in white as I can use all kinds of things to color them,

this time I used Alcohol markers, Spectrum Noir

added a brad to the middle, so cute huh...

I used an embossing folder for the yellow background

The stamps are from the 'Laugh With Me Quotes' by Fiskars 

(I have had my eyes on this stamp set for a while)

The inside of the card reads:

"Laughter if the shortest distance between two people" Victor Borge

Don't forget about our challenge, this months challenge is coming to an end

Stamping with glue pad and chalk!

Hi There,

I love butterfly stamps!  And my card today features a beautiful butterfly stamp from Unity Stamps, which was stamped with glue and dusted with Stamp n Plus Scrap N powdered chalk.  Have you tried stamping with the Tsukineko glue pad vs. a Versamark pad and using chalk?  I like the depth of image that I tend to get with the glue pad, when using powdered chalk in this fashion. 

Have you had a chance to use chalk on your projects?

Remember you still have time to join in our current Bingo Challenge.

Going in circles or is it rectangles...

Hey you, How are you?

Well things have been crazy for me...

So for today I have a

Circles and Rectangles Recipe for you...

What does that mean you ask...

well when we were putting this challenge blog together

we came up with some different ways to do cards...

well cards with CHALK... 

so I put the chalk to work by using it directly to the paper to 

create my very own colors of card stock...

Oh and I used Versa Marker to bring out the sentiment...

I really love the soft touch the chalk give the white card stock...

some use of the embossing folders, and wah la there you have it...

I hope you have had a chance to try your hands with some chalk...

Using chalk inks for distressing!

 

 

Hello!

Tameko here to share a quick Friday project. 

I used brown chalk ink to add a little aged to look around all my papers for this card.  There are so many options for distressing products today, and chalk inks work well also. 

Remember you still have time to join in our “Let’s Play Bingo” challenge. 

You can use any image, and any kind of chalk products.

Have a great weekend, and thanks for stopping by!

New Techniques

Happy Thursday you all...

I hope your having a wonderful week...

I know I am...

This week I want to share a project/card

with a new technique, to me anyway...

a friend spotted this and gave it to me to show to you !!!

so what you do is use your chalk to apply different colors directly to the paper

then take a ruler and an eraser and erase the chalk in lines/strips

you cannot really see it on this project cuz I got carried away with other stuff

but it's there..

I love chalks! They can be so fun and easy to work with,

I used 4 different colors of chalk

then erased the lines at the diagonal

then stamped the flourish background

added a simple sentiment and a button from the stash...

oh and used the triple layer stamp technique too...

I have added the tutorial on how to do the 

triple layer stamp technique that I made...

I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial on this...

it's been really fun making this card

using these different techniques...

Until next time...

Cherish & Chalk

Hello!  Jennifer here to remind you to Cherish your family and friends...you never know how long you will get with them!  Last night my Aunt lost her battle with Cancer.  From the time she knew until the time she passed was only a matter of weeks.  Tomorrow we will be on our way to meet up with the rest of the family.  It's an almost 13 hour drive but I am eager to give my family members a hug when I see them!

I did this card with craft markers, vellum stickers, flowers, brad, cardstock/papers, and the chalk is on the textured looking paper under the digi stamp and flowers.  I mixed powdered chalk, alcohol inks, glitter, and water and let dry.  On top in two corners I used two sided tape and sprinkled powdered chalk over top and brushed away with a brush (to cover the adhesive strip with the chalk).  The Powdered Chalk I used was from Stamp N Plus Scrap N.

Vogue in chalk!

and put some parts together and there you have a simple little card

The stamped image is from Mark's Finest Papers Spring Flowers collection

buttons and a paper clip from the stash
