Oh, if only it felt like November! I love Fall and Winter but, in North Carolina, Summer seems to be the prominent season, much to my dismay! I had to switch the heat pump back to A/C last night. Tonight, though, I had the house to myself so I went to Spotify, turned up the volume, and decided to do something chalky. I picked up one of the boards that I recently stained and chose to work with Chalk Couture's "Baby It's Cold Outside" transfer. I just love the mittens, although they don't show up all that well on this board.
If you haven't worked with Chalkology Paste and Chalk Transfers yet, then I'm sure that I can't convey just how fast and easy it is to create a decorative sign like this one. The colors of paste that I used are Orchid, Caribbean, and White. As I removed that large snowflake transfer (from the mitten on the right), I thought about adding glitter while the paste was still wet. It turned out beautifully! When I was sure the paste was dry, I lifted the board and let the excess glitter fall onto a piece of paper so I could return it to the glitter container.
It's hard to take photographs at night--harder still to capture the shimmer of glitter, so I had to do some tweaking to the photo. The colors are truer in the first photo.
If you have any questions about Chalk Couture or want more info, leave a comment or send me an email (see "Contact Me" in the right sidebar, just below my photo).
