What better way to try out my new stuff than to do a sketch?
I started with a white card, which I chalked with both brown tones - lightest first then darker around the edges. I then stamped 2 outlines from the 2 step butterflies in the lightest blue fluid chalk ink. I stuck on a Bella jounalling block, topped with the cutout of the 2 step butterfly done with the 2 darker shades of fluid chalk ink, and a scallop circle which I chalked the edges with brown and tried to chalk the sentiment with perfect medium (same as versamark). It wasn't dark enough for my liking so I stamped over it in the darkest pink fluid chalk ink (now it looks like a shadow). The scallop circle and the butterfly are raised with foam. Lastly, a strip of velvet ribbon running down the side to finish it.
Very pretty - love the effect you got with the chalk!
