Today's Free For All challenge is to use colors that make you happy! I LOVE all colors, but I am drawn to browns and muted color tones. They just give me a serene feeling! Those colors scream vintage to me and that makes me happy!
I used ColorBox ink in brown to stamp this new chalkboard image from ODBD called
Chalkboard -Amazing Grace.
I painted the edges with acrylic paint and then distressed the edges. The pink designer paper is embossed and also painted along the edges. I added some lace, a bow made with Becca's Peg bow Maker, a Prima flower, a corner embellishment, and a couple of Memory Box banner die cuts. I can't remember who makes the corner embellishment though! I've thrown away the packaging.
