Chalkboard Décor with the Curio

Just a quick post today to share my newest Silhouette class. It is a Silhouette Curio class that I was in the process of creating for an in-person event before everything was shut down a couple years ago. I finally picked it back up where I left off and it is now available for all to view anytime after you’ve registered on my Teachable site.

New! Chalkboard Decor with the Silhouette Curio class is now available.

This is a step-by-step class on using a chalk marker in the Silhouette Curio to sketch directly on a chalkboard.

I had so much fun playing with the chalk marker and these chalkboard signs.
