Hi everybody! Today we are so excited to announce our new Fine Tip Chalk Markers! We've partnered with Shelly Kim from Letters By Shells to show the perfect DIY projects that you can do with our 3 mm fine point chalk markers.
Idea 1: Spice up your plain craft bag!
Materials you'll need:
- Craft Bag
- Ruler
- Kassa white fine tip chalk pen
Step 1
Prep your Kassa Fine Tip Chalk Pen and get your craft bag ready!
Step 2
Draw diagonal lines (about 2” in height) across the craft bag (from left to right) using the chalk pen and ruler for a guide
Step 3
The lines should be drawn across the entire craft bag
Step 4
Then in between those lines, start drawing loops (of course, any loops/patterns work). Just have fun with it!
Step 5
Continue drawing the loops throughout the entire craft bag in between the lines
Awesome! You are all set. This craft bag can be used for anything including birthday gifts and anniversary gifts
Idea 2: Crafty Chalkboard Card
Materials you'll need:
- Blank card
- Sheet of chalkboard paper
- Gold & silver fine tip chalk pens
- Scissors or cutting board
- Tape
Step 1
Measure, size and cut the chalkboard paper. The goal is to have the chalkboard paper centered with the card. In this case, I cut the chalkboard paper slightly smaller than the card size.
Step 2
Tape down the chalkboard paper on the card, center the chalkboard paper, and press down firmly. I used regular tape, but you can definitely use hot glue, tacky glue, etc.
Step 3
Sketch (not pictured) and write a positive quote using the metallic gold chalk pen for a nice pop. Have fun with this process by creating multiple compositions for the quote. I decided to hand letter the 1st and 3rd words in script and the 2nd word in non-script.
Step 4
Using another color, create some borders or a fun pattern to compliment the quote. I decided to draw some leaves as a wreath.
Step 5
Optional— I used a faux calligraphy technique and decided to add a parallel line to make my downstrokes thicker.
Yayy! You now have a card that can be used for any occasion! Gift this card to someone who needs a positive reminder that anything is possible!
Idea 3: Unique Place Cards!
Materials you'll need:
- Acrylic tile (hexagon shape from Uniqooo)
- Flat Paint brush
- Acrylic paint
- White fine tip chalk pen
Step 1
Dip your paintbrush into the acrylic paint and apply a thin layer of paint on the acrylic tile.
Step 2
Continue painting a few more rough strokes.
Step 3
Continue this process (step 2), but slowly paint a couple more strokes higher and lower from the center point.
Step 4
Let the paint dry and then flip the acrylic over. We will be writing on the side where there is no paint.
Step 5
Using Kassa’s Fine Tip Chalk Marker, start lettering your best friend’s name or an inspirational word. I decided to write Kassa’s name because they are pretty amazing! ;)
Step 6
Let the chalk marker dry and then use this place card for any occasion!
TIP: I personally enjoy using the chalk marker on acrylic because it’s solid and opaque. Also, if you mess up, the chalk marker can easily be removed with a wet paper towel!
You are all set! I absolutely love these place cards because they can be used for any occasion, décor and even gift tags! The possibilities are endless!
