Naturally Pastels:



Here's tonights card. I've used a very simple technique called 'Poppin Pastels'. This technique simply involves stamping an image using VersaMark, and using the appliators (or sponge daubers) to apply pastels to the VersaMarked image. You'll end up with a darker section where the VersaMark collects more chalk, and a lighter image where there is no VersaMark - giving you a fantastic effect. I've also used VersaMark and Clear Embossing Powder on the card front to give the effect of morning dew. I hope you like it.

Supplies:

* Natural Beauty, Fine Lace and Lot's of Thoughts Stamp Sets.

* Garden Green, Rose Red and Naturals Ivory Cardstock.

* VersaMark Ink.

* Word Window Punch, Pastels & Applicator, Gold Cord & Clear Embossing Powder.
