Today, I have a new scrapbook page to share with you using Leaky Shed Studio Chipboard and a fun technique to give the chipboard a chalkboard look. The chalkboard trend is all the rage right now and I have grown to love the stark contrast and bold statement it can add to a project.
TECHNIQUE | CHALKBOARD CHIPBOARD
To achieve the chalkboard look on my chipboard, I simply painted the chipboard with black acrylic paint. Once it was dry, I drew on it with a white chalk pencil. I smudged the chalk slightly with my finger tip and it was ready to adhere to my layout. It is such a quick and easy technique!
INSPIRED BY | FIRST KISS PATTERNED PAPER
I was inspired to try this technique as I was going through my papers, trying to decide which ones to use on the layout. The Pebbles Inc Yours Truly First Kiss chalkboard pattern caught my attention. I knew when I saw it that I wanted to attempt this look on my chipboard.
