Use chalk to
make your own invitations

Make your own invitations using chalk to create custom artwork for the front of your cards. Using chalk is a great way to create very soft accents and colorful decorations and it is easy to use as well.

* Use chalk in combination with stencils - when you combine the use of chalk with a stencil it creates a great effect. You will have very soft and beautiful looking pictures with very little effort. They come out perfect every time. To create this effect use a Q-tip, cotton ball, or eye makeup applicator to apply the chalk.

* Combine with different arts and crafts mediums - Use chalk on the base of your cards to create soft color scenes like sunsets, clouds, or water. Add other images to this using different mediums like paint or art markers. Or even attatch scrapbooking embellishments.

Using chalk is very easy and pleasing to the eye. Using chalk is also a great activity to get your kids involved in. They can help with making your party invitations or use their imaginations to make projects of their own. They will be proud of the great works of art they will create!
