Hello and Welcome to Team KNK blog:) We are so thankful that you’re here! Today we’re creating Faux Chalkboard art with MTC and the uber awesome KNK Zing🙂
For today’s project you’ll need the following:
- the over the top KNK ZING electronic die cutting machine
- the amaZING Make the Cut die cutting Software
- a white Crayola colored pencil
- a white Sakura Souffle’ pen
- a Zig embossing pen
- black card stock
- white Zing embossing powder:)
- a heat embossing tool
- a homemade embossing buddy
- a computer (MTC and the Zing were originally a Windows compatible system only, but there’s a Mac beta version that enables me to use a Mac)
- and a couple of super fun ‘free fonts’ Bergamot Ornaments, Chalk-hand-lettering-shaded_demo

Using the KNK Zing and Make the Cut software for this faux chalk board technique is super fun! This technique can be used to create a layout, card, framed art (as I did), or a gift:) Oh my, how about a little mint tin? I’d LOVE to hear what ideas are dancing in your head:)
I am super humbled, thankful, and honored to be a part of team KNK. The Zing is so versatile and awesome:) Chalk another one up for the Zing!!
You are sooo special!! Huge cyber {{{HUGS}}} Until next time…. be blessed

Question, I tried to use a Souffle pen in my Zing – and the first few letters were a blob of ink. The last few were fine, however. What am I doing wrong? I was using a force of 22 and a speed of 8.
Are these the exact pens you were using? http://www.usartsupply.com/ItemDetail.aspx?ItemNo=SAK+58350&gclid=CNu9_4D3hrcCFQE6QgodfhYALA
Yes, they are.
Thanks for the great idea
