I love chalks, always have since I was a kid. Other than crayons, chalk was the 1st media I ever used. I do not however spend enough time using them.So today's challenge was well appreciated.
I started out with dabbing the background colors onto my card stock.
Then I stamped the main images in Versamark and colored them by pouncing color with my small daubers I then accented by tapping Q-tips loaded with color where ever I thought it was needed.
I sprayed the image with HS and let it dry. Next I took my brayer and rolled Versamark across the entire image let it set for a bit and ran my heat gun over it to finish the drying process.
The image was then mounted on to a dark green card stock, doodled with my White Signo Pen and distressed with SU's Perfectly Plum.
The card is my last piece of PP card stock YIKES that can't be...!
I embellished with some pretty ribbon scraps and a few rhinestone brads.
I hope you like it and thanks for looking!
Can't wait to get back to the forum and see everyone's cards! Have a wonderful day!

Oh this is just stunning! The ethereal look of chalks is one of my favorite looks! Love that you did your images in the pastels as well as the bg! I did that on my first one... used a bg stamp and used Q-tips to apply color to the design.. but mine didn't look as good! LOL! This is drop dead gorgeous!!!
