Flowers

For those who know me know how much I love flowers and decorating.  This is a perfect sign for my home.  What do you think.  I created it with a new Chalk Couture Transfer.

This is the Chalk Couture Transfer I used..  I cut it apart so I actually have two different transfers I can use.  So Fun.

New look over Stove

I have created a new look for above my stove.  What do you think?
I have several things I want to get done, and  then I will probably change them again. :)  

Don't forget, if you would like to try a sample of the Chalk Couture Paste, just email me at jfricker@fourway.net and I will send one out to you.  It is so fun and easy.

I am finally catching up and had a chance to make some cards this week.  Can you believe I forgot to take any pictures.  But, things have slowed down here and I plan to get some made so I have them on hand.  I am so thankful for my craft room that I can spend my time in being creative. 

How about you,  What are you doing these days?  I would love to hear from you!  I certainly do miss that part of my business as my favorite thing was talking to my customers.

Join me!

You can join Chalk Couture for only $99.00.  I joined to get all the products at wholesale and you can too.   You can just be a hobbyist and use the products or start a new business.

Below is the Designer Kit that you will receive starting April 1.

A new look

Chalk Couture has introduced many new products that I just love.  Last week I showed you a card using the Happy Birthday card I made using the Chalk Paste.  Today, I am showing you the same transfer on a blackboard frame.  I plan to do a Happy Easter one soon for my entry.

The Bonjour transfer is done on our new pallet board.  After applying the transfer, I chalk pasted it with Teal, let it dry and then waxed it.  I then offset it and Chalked it with Storm Paste.  I love how it turned out.  What do you think?  It is so easy and I can have a different look all the time,  I am going to be working on Easter things this coming week,

Craft Show picture

This is our booth downtown Fort Myers last Saturday at small business Saturday.  Marcia and I had such a good time and got lots of good exposure.

Craft Show Saturday

Tomorrow is the Craft Show in our Community, so I have been working hard to get everything ready.
I still  have a few more items I want to get done this morning.  But, other than those items, everything is packed, priced and ready to take to the club house.  Below are a few items that I will be selling.

All of the items have been done using Chalk Couture products.  Chalk Couture is so easy, that even young kids can do it.

As we prepare to give thanks this Thanksgiving, I loved the 3 different Chalk Couture transfers I used to create this picture.

I made 18 of these little so blessed signs and the Joy to the World Transfer can look so different using different surfaces and colors.

 Buffalo Plaid is so hot right now, and Chalk Couture has a wonderful transfer to make it,  

 One of my favorite Chalk Couture Transfers.  

 I created this card using Chalk Couture paste.  I have 8 books that I have decorated as accent pieces.

 I made this card using only "Chalk Couture" Paste,

What is Chalk Couture All About???

You might need to click twice to start the video.  

I have had several ask this question:  "What is Chalk Couture All About:"  I am including this video that gives you a lot of information for either becoming a Customer or a Designer.  I  truly was just interested in becoming a customer when I question the gal in the Chalk Couture booth. When ask her what it costs to become a Designer she said it was only $99.00 and I would receive $252.00 worth of products and accessories.

So, for me it was an easy decision.  We have many in our organization that are just hobbist and only use the products for their Crafting. Many make signs, pillows, cards, etc., and they use
 Chalk Couture Products to do so.

Please watch the video and let me know your thoughts. I LOVE what I am doing. Don't hesitate to call me if you have any questions 574 514 1423 or email me at jfricker@fourway.net

REMEMBER.....YOU CAN BE A CUSTOMER OR A DESIGNER, WHICHEVER FITS YOU NEEDS THE BEST.

CARD AND BOOK

We are having a craft show in our community in November and I have been decorating books for it.

This is just one sample of what I will have.  Also, I needed a very quick card this AM to send something to a friend who I wanted to show a sample using our Chalk Paste.  This card took a matter of 2 minutes from start to finish.  I could have done lots more, but I am just showing the paste.  I am so excited that it works on card stock as well as boards, painted picture frames, windows, etc.  The wonderful thing about the paste is I can take water and wash it off. (not on card stock of course).  With limited storage here in Florida that is a great benefit.

Chalking a card

I have been busy organizing my craft room to make room for my new Chalk Couture items.
Today I wanted to try our Chalk Paste on a card and oh my I must say it is fantastic.  Everything on this card is Chalk Couture paste and so easy.

Our reusable Chalk Transfers are an adhesive silkscreen that can be used on chalkboards, card stock, windows, mirrors, tile, whiteboards, appliances, painted furniture, apparel, pillows, and so much more! They are your imagination’s best friend and can be reused an average of 8-12 times (depending on care and surface applied to). There are hundreds of designs to choose from, allowing you to create a design or decor item for any type of style, space, or celebration! 

I wanted to experiment with this card using only paste, but you could add any embellishments, layers etc.  How fun it can be.

If you would like to know more about Chalk Couture, please email me at jfricker@fourway.net call me at 574 514 1423 or click https://www.chalkcouture.com/joanstouch which will take you right to my website.

This new product is so exciting and opens so many doors.

A quick catalog view

I thought you might enjoy seeing previews of our catalog today.  Just click twice on the above video.

I am receiving my products on Monday and I can't wait to start chalking and creating.  I am in a craft show in our community in November and I hope to have some things to sell.  I will certainly being doing my Tee Shirts as I have done the last 2 craft shows, but this year I want to have some more fun things too. 

 I am decorating books, making cute small signs, and will have  make and take things from Chalk Couture.  So, it should be fun. 

 I do not do cards at this craft show for a couple of reasons.  A good friend of mine does cards and I do not want to compete with her.  I spend way to much time on the cards I make and I couldn't sell them for the price I would need to charge.

Independent Designer

Exciting News

I am now an Independent Designer for Chalk Coutour!!!

Many of you have followed me for years and so this might not be a surprise to you as you know I love creating businesses.  I

truly meant it when I said I was retiring in 2014.  And, I did.
But, I still have a passion for business and one of the reason is my wonderful customers and friends I have made over those years that I have missed.  

 I accidentally discovered Chalk Couture a few weeks ago looking for something on YouTube.  I was totally blown away with the easy, quick process of their wonderful Screen Print Transfers. (you might call them Stencils but the company calls them Transfers).

Then this past weekend, I attended a fabulous Vintage Art Show here in Fort Myers and there was a Chalk Couture Booth at the show.  I spent a lot of time talking to the gals (they were from New Jersey) and after coming home to discuss it with Jon, I decided to join them and I am excited to share it with you.

Have you wanted to be creative making some signs, pictures, pillows or other crafty items for your home or gifts?  Perhaps you do craft shows and if so these sell like crazy at the shows.

 Of course I now live in Fort Myers, Florida so I won't be able to do my workshops with the products, but I will be sharing lots of video ideas on my website and also on other social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram.

I am not going in to much detail tonight, but will in the coming days.  I want to give you a chance to check out the company and product line by going to https://www.chalkcouture.com/joanstouch

My products should be arriving in the next few days and I will be busy creating some beautiful things with them.  We have a craft show in our community in November and I am considering doing another one at a large church if I can get things together for it and they have room.

Please don't hesitate to mail me at jfricker@fourway.net if you have any questions or leave me a comment below.

I look forward to hearing from you all again.  I have truly missed that part of my life.
