The Stamp Review Crew: Chalk Talk Edition

Welcome back for another round of inspiration from the Stamp Review Crew! This time, we are featuring a beautiful set that is images and sentiments all in one. It coordinates with the Chalk Talk Framelits, so you can have perfect, fast, and beautiful die-cuts in a flash! This set is also available as a digital download, which some of us will be using. And as always, if there is a set you would like to suggest, please leave a comment here and we will add it to our list of potential sets :)  Now, on with the hop!

Chalk Talk is perfect for tags, and I wanted to dress up a box. I found this awesome tutorial for a Gift Card Box on Splitcoaststampers. I was able to make a belly band for my box and decorate the inside using Chalk Talk and the coordinating Framelits.

I wasn't sure how well it would work, but it was so easy to add some additional color to my tag after I stamped it in Smoky Slate.  I used the brush tip of my Stampin' Write markers to add some color to the words and the writing tip to add color to the tiny flowers in the corners.  I also stamped it again in Calypso Coral and fussy cut the banner to add some more dimension to the tag.  Here is the inside.  

I was able to use two more of the tags on the inside of my box, which I, of course, had to fill with some candies, just like in the tutorial. lol The tags are really fun to layer and they not only work well with the Framelits but with our circle punches and oval punches as well.
