WT769 ~ Pan Pastels or Other Chalk/Pastel Media ~ 12/5/19

[Shoe Girl]

Lisa here your hostess for this weeks Ways to Use It challenge.

While going through my craft room of supplies I always see my chalks and my pan pastels and want to drag them out and play but inevitably I am always in a hurry to make a different card. Today we are going to pull out either chalks, pan pastels or any pastel media. Show me how you use them on your cards. I can't wait to see what you create.

Here are a few tutorials you could try:

Pastel Stencil Press

Pastels on Black

Stampin’ Pastels

Dual Colored Pastel Ribbon

Poppin’ Pastels

Pastel Embossing

Here is a link to our gallery: Pastels


Here is my sample: Ugly Sweater

If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:

1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.

We have a fantastic card this week from the very creative team. Please see Carla's and Sabrina's beautiful cards.

Don't own pastels, so I had to improvise with Perfect Pearls. Thanks for the challenge.

You don't have to limit yourself to pastels. Get your chalk out and play

Sorry. I should’ve said I don’t have any of those things. It’s okay. I’m not upset. It is kinda funny though because I’ve been stamping for 16 years.

I’m going to pass on that idea. I prefer to keep that for my face.

I remember loads of people using eye-shadow when I first started, with spray fixative or hairspray to set it. I don't wear any - so at some stage I bought some of the Pebbles chalk pastels.

Here's the other panel from my Pastel Stencil Press.

Thanks, Lisa for the great idea to dig out those chalks. Here is my card.

If you don't have Pan Pastels or Other Chalk/Pastel Media, please don't feel like you can play. I want to inspire creativity. You could simply do a card that uses pastel colors. I am not the challenge police, I love to have as many play as possible.


Be inspired!

I don't have any of the supplies so I went with pastels instead. Oldie but Goodie by SweetnSassyStamps - at Splitcoaststampers

I love my Stampin Pastels. I didn't do any of the fancy techniques because I'm getting a bunch of cards out for a card exchange. I will try some of the techniques later.
