Chalk acrylic paints seem to be everywhere just now.  Got mine out this month and had a lot of fun using them with MDF Laser Cuts and stencils by That Craft Place

Firstly, with Halloween coming up I created a small canvas.  The inspiration for this came from Barbara Gray and the stamps from my rubber stamp stash.


I had a great time with this next piece; an MDF shadow box on a Christmas theme.  These an be purchased with or without extra pieces.  The extras in this case were the stars and sleigh.  The trees were stamped with Claritystamp fir tree and the decoration for the one to the far right came from some ribbon I bought in Lidl.
