Ooooh, you gave me a neat idea. I'm gonna try this just like you said, except maybe spray some pearl-ex'd hairspray on the chalk. That would give it a neat shimmery effect, wouldn't it? Thanks so much for inspiring me!

This is a wonderfull card. I would like to case it. I just don't understand how you did it do you stamp with so you stamp with white ink and them emboss over it? Then you color it after you emboss it? It's such a beautiful card.
Thanks.

Thank you Gidget.
Yes. I stamped with white craft ink. But you could stamp with versa mark and use white embossing powder if you want to. Then I heat set it.
Then I just took an eye makeup sponge applicator and applied the colored chalks to the trees. They I sprayed it with fixative to set the chalks.
Hope that explains it well enough.
Feel free to ask more questions if you need to.
