This card is for two challenges. The first one is for a special gal who could use a hug. You can read it here MMTPT593~December 3, 2019~A Sister's Love~ by peeps321 at Splitcoaststampers
Lisa gave a challenge to use chalks on our card, or pan pastels. It really was a medium that I used when starting stamping. Now we have so many choices. Remember doing this technique when working with black paper. First step was to paint with the flat brush the flowers and leaves, only using white paint. Let it dry and colored with the chalks using fantastix stick...this lets you blend it onto the white. Usually when using chalks to adhere it, sprayed with hairspray. This time using the wink of stella pen went over the areas. Gave it a shimmer and no need to spray anything. Using a stylus made the white dots on flowers and bg. Added sentiment. TFL

Outstanding and beautiful card, Linda. Chalks are something I have rarely used. Maybe I should try them again.
