Send A Smile With One Of These Cute Chalkboard Notelets
Fun project to make using black and cream cardstock and your Silhouette Portrait CAMEO machine for the drawings
In the Silhouette Studio software, set your design page to A4 and draw four rectangles, each measuring 9.5x13.5cm, to create the notelet fronts.
Arrange the designs and fonts inside the rectangles as shown, alter the line colour of the sketches so that it’s different from the colour used on the rectangles.
Place a piece of A4 black cardstock onto your cutting mat, so that it co-ordinates with the mat on screen.
Go to Cut Settings > Advanced, and change the tool settings to penholder (instead of blade) and set the line colour so that the software knows to draw the designs.
Follow the step-by-step below to load the penholder, then load the mat and begin.
Once the machine has finished, unload the mat and cut out each design. Matt each design onto kraft paper, leaving a narrow border and onto cream A6 card blanks.
Use a white pen to add accents and lightly rub each design with talcum powder for an authentic chalkboard look.
