This VSN challenge was to create a card using the chalkboard technique in under 45 minutes. I LOVED Beate's Sample. I decided to use Upsy Daisy and Yoyo Yellow, Tempting Turquoise and Gable Green pastel chalks, though I don't think the gable green shows up very well in this photo. The technique was easy enough and I can see myself using it again in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my card, which was completed in 15 minutes.

Such a bright & fun birthday card!! Love the color combo you chose--they all just pop against the black. You've made me even more excited to play with set when I get it!
