Chalkboards are huge right now. Chalkboard walls in homes, intricate chalkboard art and chalkboard speech bubbles just to name a few. (Raise your hand if you have a chalkboard wall in your home. ;)
And, like all trends it's starting to make it's way into the scrapbooking world. Glitz Design just released some chalkboard themed papers at the last CHA. I love these and can't wait for projects using these papers to start showing up in the gallery.
Pebbles includes chalkboard speech bubble stickers in their Seen & Noted line. I definately need to get a white pen so I can journal on these.
The trend is even showing up on washi tape... like this roll from Freckled Fawn.
Echo Park has released a Project Life friendly line called Today's Story that includes chalkboard journaling and accent cards.
And if you're a digi scrapper your choices are even more abundant. :)
Now what about taking this trend right onto the cover of your projects like scrappfever did?
Or translating it onto the background of a page? waisam was inspired by Garden Girl Wilna's layout in her video for the In the Mood video series when she created this page.
So, while chalkboard art is a relatively new trend in the scrapbooking world I think it's just starting to make it's presense known.
How about you? Have you been inspired by this trend yet?
Hej alla! Jag vet inte var jag ska börja, men hoppas att denna webbplats kommer att vara användbart för mig.

Yes I have. I watched Wilna Furstenburg's In The Mood To Scrap and made my own layout from chalkboard paint. Here is a link to my project: http://lee-annelovethejourney.blogspot.ca/2013/02/chalkboard-craze.html
