Instructions for Flower & Leaves:  Punch 6 scallops Circles.  Wet them using water or rubbing alcohol ( I prefer Rubbing Alcohol because it dries faster) Scrunch and pleated with hands until you have a wet ball.  Using Heat Tool Dry the flowers until they are dry and hard.  Using the flat end of the paper Piercer mash in the middle to form a flat bottom.  Apply a small amount of Tombo Glue and layer each flower.  Keeping the last one (on top) scrunched small.  Apply to card using the tombo glue  Leaves are made by  first punching a circle and then re-entering it to punch to punch out two leaves. Mist them with the alcohol,  Fold in half and scrunch up, heat set until dry and hard, apply with mini glue dots.

Spreading Ink Technique with Carrie Cudney

Chalk Board or Black Magic

Tips and  Technique club made this.  

First you will ink the image in White Craft Ink (This is a pigment ink) it is slow to dry.  You will stamp this on black or another Dark colored Card stock.  While it is still damp you will apply the pastels by daubing them on the damp image It’s ok for it to look a little messy.  Once you have it the way you want it, take the swifter cloth and wipe off any excess chalk.
