Tag...you're it

Well today is my last Wednesday as guest designer for July and I have to say that I have had such a great time sharing creations with you!  For my project today I once again combined Chalk and Copics; this time creating a tag.
I printed this digital image onto cardstock and colored her with Copics first.  I then added the background using chalk.  I then went in and added shading to her using my chalks.




I have totally enjoyed sharing projects with you this month and hope I have inspired you to pull out your Chalk and combine them with your Copics to add great depth to your coloring projects.

Happy crafting....Lynda

Project supplies:  Chalk:  Close to My Heart; Fiber: Really Reasonable Ribbon, Markers:  Copic; Digital image: Papelitos Stamps; white gel pen and glossy accents.

Cheer Up...

Hi everyone hope you all had a great weekend!
I wanted to share a fun project with you today! 
This is a cute cat with a sale boat.
I used versamark to stamp the image and then
added different colors of chalk direct to the paper.

Background with chalk…

 

 

Hi There,

Its Tameko sharing a Friday creation with you!

Are you ready for another dose of chalk inspiration?

Well, you are in the right place!

Are you ever concerned about mailing the cards/projects you make?  Maybe because they have lots of beautiful embellishments etc…

Chalk can be a wonderful tool for adding dimension/depth to your project.

Sparkly distraction

Hi everyone...Lynda here which means it is Wednesday!!!  I've gotten a few questions about chalk and Copics, so I thought I would post an in the works type picture and give you a few more details about what I do...
I lay down a layer of color with my Copics first.  I then come in and add shading to certain areas of my images with a Q-tip and chalk.  You can see on this where I added extra purple to her hair and then completed the entire background with the chalk.  I then clean my image up using an eraser.


for this image I wanted her eyes to pop and add some extra sparkly goodies to go with the cute sentiment...so I added Glossy accents to her eyes and used a clear glitter pen on the flowers and the border around the image...

Here's my final card:


I hope you'll pull out your chalks and pair them with your Copics for the perfect shading on your next project!!

Supplies used:  Image:  Dilly Beans, Markers:  Copic, Chalk:  Close to my Heart; Pattern paper, green cardstock and sentiment by Momenta.

Happy crafting....Lynda

Friday Sunshine…

 

 

Hello,

I hope that you have had a wonderful week! 

DSC_0177-WM

I don’t know about you, but sometimes when I sit down to create a project, I just have too many ideas in my head.  Not to mention, too many forgotten products.  For this card I pulled out my  forgotten Faber Castell Aquarelle Pencils to color my image, and then I used powdered chalk to add a little dimension to the edges of the image.  I love the seamless application that can be achieved with the Stamp N Plus Scrap N powdered chalk.  My photo does not pick it up, but my sentiment also has the same chalk applied to the edges. 

I hope that I have inspired you to pull out your chalk products, and play!

Remember you still have time to join out “Get Well” challenge!

Until next time,

Keep Chalking!

Chalk Style....


Oh I love the Stardust chalk...
you can add it to some water or alcohol in a small spray bottle..
then shake and spray!!
I also use my heat gun to set the spray and speed up the drying time.

I use this on almost every project to give it a shine...

Wednesdays in July

Wednesdays in July mean that you get another post from the guest designer for the month...me, Lynda!!!  Today I am sharing with you another Chalk and Copics creation I made.  Note how you can add the chalk to the copics directly to alter the colors to make them richer in places and then directly to the white area of my image to create a subtle background behind her...



I do hope you'll give the Chalk and Copics combo a try...  I love that if I make a mistake I simply erase the chalk and start over again at shading...perfect shading every time!!!

Happy crafting...Lynda

Supplies used:  Digital image:  Dilly Beans, Chalks:  Close to My Heart, Markers: Copics; Fiber:  Really Reasonable Ribbons, Pattern paper:  Cosmo Cricket; Button from my stash.  Sentiment is computer generated using Word.

Happy 4th of July!!!

Hello...Lynda here as the guest designer for the month of July!  Happy 4th of July!!!  I hope you are spending the day with friends and family...I am so excited to share with you each Wednesday some of my favorite creations featuring chalk!

Because today is all about spending time with friends, I thought I would celebrate a special friendship with a card.  For this card, I first stamped my image using Memento ink.  I colored the base of the image using Copic markers...then comes the magic...adding chalk in places on your stamped image to add shadows...  the fantastic part about adding chalk to colored images is that if you make a mistake you simply erase the chalk and start over.  I also used chalk to color the background behind the entire image.


I hope you'll give this technique a try...I'm sure you'll find it is a super fun and easy way to add depth to any stamped project!

Happy crafting...Lynda
