All Chalked up!!

Hi Friends,

Made few chalkboard projects for Mudra few weeks before, thought to share here.


Chalked Bookmarks , Chalked Notecards, Chalked Gift Tags :

Chalked Bookmarks:

  • Took black cs in 2.25″x6″ and white heat embossed sentiments from Bookmarks stampset and Hot air ballon from Beachfun Stampset.
  • Then using tissue, buffed white pigment ink over the embossed and surrounding areas to give a chalkboard effect.
  • Bordered the panel with white colored pencil.
  • Went ahead and matted this over a white cs.
  • Then laminated this bookmark and added a black satin ribbon as final touch.
Chalked Notecards:

  • These are 3.5×3.75″ notecards which i attempted to do Table art, by showcasing these on mini easels for a daily Inspirational kick at workspace 🙂
  • I took sentiments from FarewellDare to fly stampsets and white heat embossed it along with feathers from Dreamcatcher and chevron washi from Washis stampset.
  • Buffed white pigment ink over the embossed areas.
  • Highlighted panel by white colored pencil scorings.
  • Matted with White cardstock.
  • Laminated the panels to make sturdy.
Chalked Gift Tags:

  • Was hoarding these thick colored cardboard hearts for a long time now.
  • Went ahead and black gessoed it heavily.
  • White heat embossed the sentiments from Mixed Greetings stampset.
  • To add little extra detailing, stamped flourishes from Vintagey Florishes stampset around the sentiments.
  • Added natural linen ribbon and a teeny tiny ivory Raffia bow as final touch.
Hope you like these inspirations using Chalkboard technique.

Happy Tamil New year!

Hearty Tamil New year Wishes to all Tamilians across the Globe!!
Made a quick card using Mudra stamps with Tamil font to wish my closest pals, who are celebrating their 1st Tamil New year after their wedding. 

  • Wildhoney and Mustard seed is sponged on the bg and embossed using WRMK weaves bg.
  • The lamps are gold heat embosses, colored using Zig and fussy cut.
  • The sentiment is centrally gold heat embossed on a vellum focal panel to which fussy cut lamps are added.
  • The vellum piece mounted on to the embossed panel and then mounted to the A2 sized gold cardbase
  • Just 2 pieces of peach rhinestones on the lamps added to finish off the card.
