Stepped Up Chalkboard Card

First off I wanted to thank all of you that have sent me encouraging messages & prayers. I appreciate it more than you know. Mom is doing better but still in the hospital. My girls will finally get to see her tomorrow since she has been moved out of ICU. #4 is still sick so she may have to wait a few more days to visit.
I also have to say a Big Huge Thank You to my sweet, talented, friend & downline, Stephanie http://www.berrysweetness.com/ . She sent me the absolute cutest card set today! Totally made me smile! She used the new Sale-a-Bration set Patterned Occassions & now its on my must have list! I will ask her if I can share them with you.
Anyway...
It seems like everywhere you look you see chalkboards! They are surely all the rage right now & I happen to be a huge fan! But since I don't have a spot to hang one of these cuties yet I figured the next best thing would be to make a faux chalkboard card!

I actually made 2 versions of this card this stepped up version & a simplier one for our demonstrator get together. Surprisingly all my friends chose to do the simplier one. I think I might teach this technique at our next Technique Tuesday class. =)

It's been a while since I've been able to visit your blog - your samples are AMAZING! Seriously! I hope I have time to case some of them, my customers would be so impressed! Sorry to hear about your mom. I hope she improves and has as much time as possible to spend with you and your little ones. It's a wonderful blessing they have her in their lives. Take care :-)
