Stormy- Monochromatic Spring Card

OK  - liked you win some supplies - like blue and purple powdered chalk from Chalk-Ah-Lot, [which I just received in the mail yesterday] and I had no clue how to use this chalk - so I go to the website and learn the different techniques using this chalk - so I sort of follow the technique using the chalk, water and a cotton ball and then oh la! I like the results! I am calling this work - Stormy.  I am, by no means, an artist, but I do have to say, I am really liking how this card turned out and I can see more cards like this in the future.  Thanks for stopping by today - I am going to my crafting corner now ~ have a happy day!

  RECIPE
White Cardstock for the mat - sprinkle a bit of the chalk on the mat - spritz water on a cotton ball and then spread the chalk on the mat [follow suit the with the Cricut Cut outs and the blue frame and the sentiment after it is stamped on the white cardstock]
Pop Up Tape Forever in Time
Powder Chalk - blue and purple - powderedchalk.com
Cricut Cartridge Create a Critter - Umbrella and flowers
Sentiment - Marks Finest Papers - Spring Things
Micron purple ink pen for the ...
Colorbox purple ink for the sentiment stamp
