MIM Chalkboard pt. 2

Another chalkboard card for MIM #98
this time an anniversary theme with some colored 'chalk'.
Not really chalk, but sure looks like it!
Is there anything more fun than working on a project and loving it?
Must be why there are so many of us 'crafters' out there.
PTI Love and Marriage stamp set with a few stamps from Back Pocket Basics and Thanks All Ways.
Great ideas from my stamping sisters at Nichole Heady's blog.
Check them out!

    This whole chalk thing is really addictive, isn`t it? :-) Again - very good choice of stamps for your project. The tiny heart on your tree as well as the felt heart in the corner are the icing on the cake! Lovely!
    (oh, and thank you so much for you comments. Makes me smile when someone comments and especially when it`s you!)

    OMG you might be the queen of the chalkboard! LOL Seriously though I really love this card, everything about it but the hearts and white mesh really finish it off!

Looks like you're a big MIM fan...such pretty creations! Thanks so much for visiting and leaving your sweet comment! I've certainly enjoyed my visit here!!!

    Love your card Nancy - wow, you have this technique nailed!
    Thanks for your kind comments at my blog (I surely need to practice my chalkboard cards a bit more though!) Will surely have to give your tip about cornstarch a try - thanks for that!
