We've reached November already - can you believe it? - and this month Tim Holtz has shared one of the techniques from his Creative Chemistry 102 course. This is an amazing effect and so easy to do as long as you can get hold of the chalk (don't children play with it any more? I had to get the huge lumps of pavement chalk! After all my years as a primary school teacher carrying bits of it around in my pockets, don't you think?) and theAntiquities embossing powder, which is what makes it all work!
November is very much about remembrance for me so I've chosen a this Poppy stamp from Sheena. It is hard to see in this picture but the flower heads are coloured with red chalk and have been layered
up on silicone glue. I'm going to try this again using a Versamark pen to write my own messages...
Crafty hugs,
Keren

Cool technique and love that it uses chalk. Miss the old chalk boards and don't know why but love the smell. Fab tag and yes, can see the colors a bit.
