It's time for another challenge at Merry Monday and this week we are challenging you to use the Chalkboard Technique. I stamped my images with Versamark and then embossed with White embossing powder. I used Stazon Opaque Cotton White Ink to create a shadow on the words, chalk smudges and the holly. To colour the holly I used my Prismacolour Pencils, first using white and then the colour. I finished off with a Gold Metallic Mat, Stocking Stickers and my row of Bunting. Check out the rest of the Design Teams fabulous creations at Always Playing With Paper.
