I have been wanting to try this layout technique from Maile for quite some time and decided today was the day! I hope you all aren't tired of seeing this Make it Monday technique here on my blog.
Like I said, I pulled out a bunch of my IP ( I don't have that many) and impressed the papers, then laid the papers out with my chalk and daubers and went to town...then it was a matter of stamping them. So this is the wood grain as you can see, I used Garden Grace for my stamps and sliced through it for the sentiment (which is from Botanical Blocks).
If you have some chalk in your stash now is the time to pull it out and use it.
Last March when my BFF was here, we went to Craft Warehouse in Gresham OR and spotted a box of firm round spongie things...we asked if they worked good for daubing, and was told yes, but they aren't soft, so they don't squish, but man they work great for chalk!
Thanks again for taking a look,
hope you all have a great week!
Heart Hugs,
Colleen
