SSCB 26- Chalkboard!!

Happy Wednesday and another Serendipity Stamps Challenge... we're playing with the chalkboard technique!! Talked with my mom earlier {lives in Northeast IN} and they just got 8 inches of snow!! Winter Wonderland!

Me... still in the Christmas/Winter mode and I inked up this adorable Snowman/woman..'kay I'm somewhat of a feminist... not in the Gloria Steinhem way... but, want us girls to get credit, LOL!!


I stamped this adorable snowman with versamark and heat embossed with white. Added a little color with pastel chalk and sponged some white ink around the image. Added some snow with Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow stencil using modeling paste. The sentiment is also from Serendipity and it was stamped in versamark and heat embossed with white.

Such a fun and still trendy technique!! Works with all kinds of images!!

Hope you find time to join us, and...

The rules are simple... play along using at least one Serendipity Stamps image on your submission and link it below. You don't have to have a blog to play along - you can link your designs to any on line gallery.

Love how you made your snow, on this adorable card. Your snow woman looks great in chalk. Too funny ...I like how you said not in a GS way. I'm still in Christmas mode too.
