using Chalks!


This first one is called the enchanted tree. I first stamped out the tree and surroundings with black ink. Then i used chalks with an applicater so i could add as much or as little as i wanted of each colour and blended them to the blue to the sky but with red hues coming in as you would usually see first thing of a morning or as the sun goes down at night.

This one i stamped a swirly background and then added the chalks in the same way as above and blended the colours to match what i was going to embellish it with.

The embellishment is called friendly plastic which comes in different colours some of which are block colours as the pink that i used. However some are multi toned like the other i used.

What you do is cut the friendly plastic however you want and the heat with a heat gun and leave to cool for a few seconds so it doesn't stick to your fingers like hot glue. I then used a tooth pick while the friendly plastic was still hot and pulled through the colours, which not only helped to bring them together helped to create a pattern. I then finished embellising and it was done
