For my card, I decided to make another Chalkboard Technique card as I learned how to make here. I started with a piece of black cardstock and embossed the large arched window with white embossing ink at the top. I also embossed the “Look to this day” saying from the Sanskrit and “Let Your Light Shine” on the sides. I stamped that sentiment a couple more times with white craft ink and drew some lines with a white colored pencil. I added some yellow stars and layered on a yellow card.

This card and
its sentiments seem appropriate for Martin Luther King Jr. Day and also the
start of President Obama’s second term. Here’s hoping every tomorrow will be a
vision of Hope!
I am entering
this card in the Embossing challenges at Totally PaperCrafts and A Gem of a Challenge.
