The chalked colors on the Soft Suede look a lot closer to the colors that are in the designer paper in real life. It was kind of hard to get an accurate photo of this at night for some reason.

Joanne, this is gorgeous! I love the way you incorporated this beautiful paper, this week's sketch and the chalkboard technique. Love to see you using a rich brown for your chalkboard instead of black. A real wow!
