I hope your having a great week so far. We had a Dr. appointment for the baby yesterday and all is well.. woohoo!!! :) Just 6 more weeks till this little guy is done baking!! :) Woohoo!!!! I am so ready!
This is the card that I did for Practical Scrappers this week. Our challenge was to use chalk/ink this week. Chalk is something that I haven't played with a lot but really love how it looks, the soft look it has. For this card I used my Alphacolor Square Pastels (chalk crayons). I've had this set for a long time just haven't used it on my cards before. I used three colors blue, green and yellow. I started of with a 2 1/2 by 3 3/4 peace of white card stock and simple added little at a time some chalk with a sponge. That gave me a back ground for the flowers. I also added some brown chalk around the edges of the blue printed paper.
Used:
Several different cardstock.
ColorBox "Rose Coral" and "Maroon" chalk.
Pamass Pigment Ink pad "Green".
CTMH "Happiness" stamp set.
CMTH "For Every Occasion" stamp set.
Martha Stewart yellow ribbon.
