The Cottage image was inked with Versa Magic- Cloud White onto black cardstock. It was then embossed with detailed white. I repeated the same steps with the "friends" stamp. With a white chalk pencil I ran a line near the edge of the rectangle die. The fun buttons repeat the colors in the paper.

For the inside, the Welcome stamp turned out perfect for the chalkboard technique! I thought this card would be fun to give to a new neighbor. The buttons were made from circle dies and a small hole punch.

Splitcoaststampers has wonderful tutorials. The Chalkboard technique can be found here by Beate Johns.

Thanks for looking!
