{ CRATE PAPER CHALKBOARD LAYOUT }

Hello and happy monday!
I am so sorry I am really late in posting this Chalkboard layout!
Last week over at Crate Paper we had the best time creating on this ever so fashionable theme: Chalboard: you will find a huge amout of inspiration on the blog!

I created this layout and it was so much fun!

The chalkboard theme immediately made me think about school and learning, maybe because I'm a teacher! So, one morning, as I was taking my kids to school, I snapped this photo of my boy in front of the big chalkboard in his classroom: he usually loves to draw on it as soon as he enters his classroom.

 I left a big empty space on the right of the board, printed the photo in a large format and filled the board with words and numbers. I cut the words with my Cameo; learn, grow, to be, ...and added these cute numbers from Flea Market's chipboard.

The rest of the design is pretty simple: strips of paper trimmed from Flea Market's 6" x 6" patterned paper pad and a little cluster of embellishments.

The result is a happy school themed layout and my little guy loves it! I gifted it to his teacher and she displayed it in the class! Guess who's a proud boy now?!

have yourself a great day!
hugs
