An old, but wonderful technique is the "faux" Chalkboard Technique. I cvan almost hear the scrap of fingersnails on the chalkboard and see the dust flying when the teachers used to clean the erasers!!
Here's a fun card - I love this technique and I'll be teaching it next month! Stay tuned for more samples
