a fun technique to try....more samples....

here is a card I just did up.
I ran the light purple through the cuttlebug embossing folder-ran the versamark over the raised words & colored with 2 colors of chalk.
stamped the flower on vellum and colored with chalk, tore it out and inked the edges.

Thanks Ruth Ann for reminding me of this, it's fun.

Lovely card Christy! I bought that embossing folder when I was in the states. You are so creative. BTW, is this why you were looking for your vellum tape? The BB glue worked well!

it is. I've found that if I use a very thin layer of bb glue and spread over the entire back with my finger it will be invisible when it drys. I was just being lazy in wanting the tape

Ruth Ann - thank you for this thread - I've had chalks in my stash for ages. Once in a while I'll bring them out and try to chalk over dry embossing - never thought of that - but now!!!!!! I have to try it - that technique is beautiful.
