Hi everyone and happy Saturday :)
Today I'm sharing a card with you that I've created with the adorable papers that come with the new March Kit of Scrapbook Werkstatt! I really adore their kits and love creating with them!
For my card I used a paper from Carta Bellas "True Friends" and another paper from I Lowe Scraps "Why Not?" collection.
I tried kind of a "variation" of the chalkboard technique that is so hot at the moment ;-)
I did not use a dark backround and I did not use a (completely) white image, but I've sponged around the "love" with some white ink to create a little bit of the "chalk dust" effect.
I admit, that the result has not much in common with a chalkboard *lol*, but I like the effect anyway (not sure you can see it in the picture if you don't look really well?)
Hallo zusammen und Euch allen einen wunderschönen Samstag :)
Heute möchte ich Euch eine Karte zeigen, die ich mit den hübschen Papieren aus dem neuen März Kit der Scrapbook Werkstatt gemacht habe! Ich mag die Scrapbook Werkstatt Kits wirklich sehr und es macht immer riesen Spaß damit was zu werkeln!
Für meine Karte habe ich Papiere aus der "True Friends" Serie von Carta Bella, sowie aus der "Why Not?" Serie von I Lowe Scrap benutzt.
Ich habe hier auf meiner Karte eine "Variation" der Chalkboard Technik benutzt, die im Moment so angesagt ist ;-) Ich habe keinen dunklen Hintergrund benutzt und auch kein (komplett) weißes Motiv, aber ich habe um das "love" herum mit weißer Stempelfarbe gewischt um so diesen "Kreidestaub" Effekt zu erhalten.
Ich gebe gerne zu, das mein Ergebnis nicht viel mit einer Tafel gemeinsam hat *lach*, aber ich mag den Effekt dennoch (allerdings bin ich nicht ganz sicher, ob man das auf dem Foto auch gut erkennen kann, wenn man nicht genau hinschaut?)
