I am trying to figure out how to do a technique called Pullin Pastels. I saw a wonderful card in the gallery that used this technique, but I have never heard of it. Is it anything like Poppin Pastels?
this is beautiful done. I just did one at a workshop....we used NON cardstock. Rubbed chalks on it,then stamped Frosty and snowflakes, very pretty. We embossed some in white too.

Stampinstalker - what color chalk did you use with the NON cardstock? I am trying to design a Happy Holidays card and that sounds really beautiful.
I think I read somewhere that you would seal this type of card with an aerosol (sp?) hairspray. Just spray a very fine mist over the card. You can do this when you use pastels or pearl ex.
I tried the pearl-ex technique last week, and it looked great...until I tried to seal it. I was playing with little sample pieces and sealed one with hairspray and one with Krylon clear. Both turned dull and the Krylon developed a light whitish-chalky look. Ugh. Any suggestions??
