Stampin' Up! Medallion chalkboard technique

So Challenge No 18 is the chalkboard technique, you use Whisper White Craft ink and pounce Stampin’ Pastels into the stamped images, I always use our sponge daubers.  On the card above I have used the Medallion background stamp with Yoyo Yellow, Summer Sun, Pumpkin Pie and Rose Red pastels to give the sunset effect.  The scalloped image is part of the new Sale-a-bration set Vintage Labels with a little Pretty ink Pink ribbon to finish.

My second card is using the same sale-a-bration set, this time partnered with my old favourite combination, Sage Shadow and Chocolate chip!  I have punched out a variety of circles and hoops from the Speciality Designer Series paper To the Nines and layered them one on top of the other.

There seems to be a bit of a thaw today, but the clouds look full of snow so we shall see what the rest of the day brings……..meantime I’m going to make some more samples with my Sale-a-bration sets so do pop back tomorrow.

Happy Stampin’

Amanda
