MDSM96 Chalkboard Challenge

Happy New Year!  We have a few changes to announce.  After dreaming up the concept of MDS Monday, and leading us through 95 challenges, both Holly and Tara have decided to step down and focus their efforts elsewhere.  All the other designers at MDS Monday want to give them a big hug and thank you for their inspiration, creativity and leadership!  This site wouldn't exist without them, nor would any of us be part of this great group.  The remaining members of the design team love this site and My Digital Studio so much that we want to continue where Holly and Tara left off.  So, Tami and Yapha have volunteered to help lead the group and move forward with new challenges and sketches. 

Additionally, we want to thank our December Guest Designer, Sharon Maranich!  Thank you so very much for your wonderful pages this past month.  We loved seeing your creative designs each week!

With all that said, let's move on to this week's challenge.  Tomorrow, the new Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog is coming out, which includes the new chalkboard paper.  So, we thought it would be fun to show how we can use chalkboards on our digital pages.  There is no sketch for this week; it's an open challenge.  So let your imagination flow, and show us what you can do with chalkboards!  You can find chalkboard paper in the following downloads:  Back to School and Hello World.  Also, if you're looking for some fun free chalkboard fonts, try this link from Yapha.
