Chalk Technique


I tried a technique today with chalks which gives quite a subtle effect. This was done using chalks in two or three colours sponged onto black card, then an image was stamped using Versamark ink pad which lifts the chalk off leaving an imprint. The stamp needs to be a fairly solid design and I used a Laura Ashley flower spray. The card was finished with some embossing and ribbon.

  2. Really lovely card Val - did you seal the image to protect the chalks?
