you must have a versamark pen to do the lines and words with? very cool look! and yes the mess adds and looks just like a chalk board did. Boy it shows are age since none of the kids now a days even know what a chalk board is.

Our usual posing before we are off to the first day of school!! I just read in a magazine last night about using white embossing powder on black cardstock to mimic a chalkboard. This fit perfectly. My embossing work got a little mess/dusty but I think it just adds to the chalkboard look...of course my kids don't know what a chalkboard is anymore!!! LOL!
