Chalk-Ah-Lot Cafe challenge

Welcome back to another week of Chalk-Ah-Lot cafe. This weeks challenge is Christmas in July. 

**Remember you must use chalks by Stamp N Plus**

I made this card using the bells stamp J1955 by Stamp N Plus, sentiment stickers by Cloud 9, patterned paper by American Crafts, Little Yellow Bicycle and Making Memories. I heat embossed the image with silver embossing powder and then mixed chalk and paint together to color the image in. The fun thing about chalk is the ability to give the image depth by shading. 

Thanks for looking.

Mid Month Christmas Cards all year Round

We are now half way through July and I wanted to post a Christmas card to remind you of the flowers challenge going on at Christmas Cards all year Round.

The background stamp is by Stampabilities. I used Versa Mark ink to heat embossed the image with red embossing powder by Ranger Industries and then smeared distress ink over top. The sentiment stamp is by Unity Stamp Co.

The die cuts are by Spellbinders and the border punch by Stampin Up. I sprayed the flowers with Perfect Pearls and water. 

Thanks for looking.
