Welcome back for my third card kit post using the Simon Says Stamp April 2013 Card Kit (Everyday Happy).
For today's card I focused on using one of the SEI chalkboard pieces that came with the kit:
Some tips:
* Don't try to heat emboss on these chalkboard pieces. They will warp. (Ask me how I know). ;)
* Also, the surface is slick and so you'll want to use a Staz-on type ink instead of pigment or dye ink...or you can use chalk! (That's what they're made for after all). :)
Supplies used:
Unfortunately this month's kit has already sold out BUT if you comment on any of my 3 April card kit posts (Tuesday, Thursday, and today) by midnight EST on Monday April 8th you could still win one! :) I'll be back next Tuesday, April 9th with a final card to share using the card kit and a card kit winner to announce. :) Big thanks to sweet Heidi, owner of SimonSaysStamp.com. for providing these giveaways each month.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
