I hope this week has started off nicely for you. Me? well, I think I will always be busy until I retire from my paying job. So, until then, the lovely ladies over @ Nacho Average Challenge, have a great sketch for you to play with this week! Here is the sketch:
Now, don't let this bold, plain sketch deflate your creativity. Let's take a closer look. The rectangle shape of the main piece can easily be changed into a shape. The thick matt can easily be changed to a thinner matt. The space on the main panel can easily showcase a large stamp, show-off a background stamp, or allow you to wow us with a technique.
Here is what I did:
If you have searched the internet recently, you have seen alot of paper crafts with this faux chalkboard technique. I think this look is 'old school', since most public classrooms have dry eraser boards than chalkboards. A crime I say! Anyways, I saw this fabulous tutorial, and decided to use the open space on this sketch to illustrate my take on the faux chalkboard technique.

I hope that you have found some inspiration, and join us this week with this fun sketch @ NAC!
Happy Crafting! hugs, Sharon W.

I like the color combo you chose. The black, red, and pool look fab together. The chalkboard technique is wonderful, but that little layered bow is terrific!
