Chalk N Stock

Goth in a fun way!

Hi everyone welcome to

I used it here and love the way it turned out.

The sentiment is chalked

"Magical things happen when you least expect."

It's too early for Christmas Cards, but....

Ok, here is a quick post...

something you can do so easy with chalk...

Put some chalk in a spray bottle with some water/alcohol mix and

spray spray spray your heart away...

That's what I do most of the time when I use chalks...

Here is another simple card using this technique...

its hard to see the shimmer the stardust chalk gives but it does make it shine pretty...

so simple and fun...

so get yourself a little spray bottle and add some perfect pearls or something like that...

add your 2 favorite colors together and there you have a challenge entry for this

Challenge...2 Favorite Colors Challenge

Happy Chalk'n

Good Wednesday to you...

I am so excited to be part of the Chalk n Stock DT and help them promote such a great and fun medium. Katie, from the team, got me to try chalks in my projects and I just love using them now. They give a softness that you don't get with alcohol markers.

I used Pebbles Inc. chalk to color in the stamp on my birthday card. It's just a regular stamp that I heat embossed. I added a little bling to it with glitter glue. I used my ink chalk to do the edging on the sediment "sweet birthday wishes."

Please visit Lorby's World to learn more about this cute card and thank you for visiting us here at Chalk n Stock and don't forget about linking up to our wonderful challenge where you can win 7 (Yes 7) digital stamps from Bugaboo Stamps.

Nikki's Inspiration piece

Welcome back to another inspiration piece and this week it is a Christmas card. I have chalked the edge of the image to give it a distressed look and coloured the gorgeous bugaboo image with pro markers.

More details are on my blog NMCardcreations so please stop by and take a look.

Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget to join our challenge at Chalk N Stock this fortnight 2 favourite colours.

I'm back...

Hey everyone...Lynda here back to do another guest designer month here with the fantastic ladies of the Chalk n Stock blog! I love combining my chalks with other mediums to create different and diverse color effects on my projects. I think my favorite is chalks with Copics. I love the effect you get when you add the chalk to the Copic colored image and that you can erase the chalk and start over again if you find yourself not liking what you've done anywhere on your project. Chalk is such a forgiving medium to work with.

For my project this week I decided to work with this fantastic image from Bugaboo stamps titled Dottie Yoga:

isn't she awesome! I have a friend that is really into yoga, so I colored this card to look like her and hope that it brings a smile to her face when she opens it.

The current challenge is to use two of your favorite colors...be sure to create something fun and link it up on the November 1 blog post here.

Happy crafting...Lynda

Believe..

Hello, and Happy Friday!

I used Stamp N Plus Scrap N powdered chalk to color the background for sentiments. The paper that I used looks like its marbled, and the chalk really enhances it. These cards came together rather quickly….with a few embellishments!

See my blog for more details on these cards.

Thanks for stopping by!

...few simple rules to follow:

1. You must be a follower to join the challenge and there's two ways to do that.

You can follow us by email. There's only one or two posts a month, so following Chalk n Stock won't clog up your inbox.

2. Alternatively, if you're a Facebook member, you can join our Facebook group and follow Chalk n Stock there. You can also upload your challenge entries there too, by adding them to the event posted at the top of the page. You can contact me and I'll be happy to add you to the group personally. Make sure you add your blog link to your upload!

And there's another way to enter your projects, especially for those who don't have a blog. Post your entry on your FB wall, making sure to set your post to public and make sure you add a tag to the Chalk n Stock group in your post.

Then just add your entry to the current event.

Sadly, if you're not in some way a follower, your entry will be deleted.

3. You may enter up to four projects per month and there is no limit to the number of challenges you may enter the project into.

4. Finally, if you have a blog, you must mention the challenge in your blog post and include a link back to the Chalk n Stock Challenge page.

One additional thing... no back linking must be a current project that was created after the challenge was posted!
