Merry Monday #86

It is time for a new  Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge, and Lesley's has another lovely image for inspiration today.
 
 
I have had all the supplies to create something using the chalkboard technique for a while but I have not used it much. As I created this simple card I wondered why not because I love how it turned out.
 
I embossed the sentiment on chalkboard cardstock with Winter Wonderland embossing powder which is white with specs of silver. I added some silver twine and silver gems to finish.
 
 
 
 
Supplies: Natural white and black card stock, Designer Paper-Echo Park, Woodware - Heartfelt Christmas Wish, twine, gems, embossing powder.
 
Stop by Lesley's blog  and see what the Design Team has created and play along with us for Merry Monday this week.
 
Cheers,
Nina

    Hi Nina. Love the shape of your chalkboard sentiment ... and the rhinestones make it sparkle. The candy-cane striped DP is so pretty and it's fabulous how you've used it two directions. Loll xx

    So clever to flip the strips on your DSP, Nina. It really draws the eye to your fabulous sentiment panel!

    I love how that one strip of paper breaks the diagonal lines and gives such a pleasing pattern! A wonderful sentiment!
