I used a Tim Holtz tag die and then added pattern paper and a die cut along the bottom.  I added Nuvo Embellishment mouse in cornflower blue around the edges of the tag, the sentiment and the focal image.  I like how the mouse looks like she is flying!

Some Nuvo glitter and glitter enamel dots, finish off this cute tag.  Ribbon and solid cardstock are from FSJ.

What is Chalk Couture?

You want to learn more about the hottest rage to hit crafting tables all over the US? Well you have come to the right place. Here you will find everything you need to know about my Chalk Couture, and all they have to offer. 

First Things First — What is Chalk Couture?

Chalk Couture is the newest trend hitting the Arts & Crafts industry today. Using chalk in handmade home decor is growing in popularity and they make creating your own designs easy and fun for all ages.

They have formulated an amazing line of chalk pastes and vinyl transfers (kind of like a sticky, durable, bendable stencil), as well as an amazing line of high-quality chalkboards that make creating your own home decor fun, easy and changeable.

In addition to removable and changeable chalk paste, Chalk Couture offers permanent Inks to use on so much more than signs and home decor. You can create your own custom clothing, towels, bedding, pillow cases, you know it, you can ink it!

Chalkology Paste is a water-soluble crafting paste that goes on wet, dries hard and washes off of nonporous surfaces with water. Once dried it will not smear or smudge and has a durable yet smooth finish. It can be layered, glittered (while it’s wet) and even written on once it is dry.

Chalkology Permanent Inks are brand new and so amazing. The permanent inks work on every medium our paste’s work on, but they also provide permanent finish once heated.

The Chalk Transfers are reusable adhesive silkscreen that can be used on chalkboards, windows, mirrors, tile, whiteboards, appliances, painted furniture and much more.
