Flutterby Wednesday is hosting an Open Challenge this week - Anything Goes as long as your creation has a butterfly or a fairy on it!
I've been going through my old stamp sets lately and have one of the first techniques I learned on my card today too - the chalkboard technique. I stamped the solid image of the butterfly with craft white ink on black cardstock. After I gave it a few minutes to dry, I colored over it randomly with my chalk pastels before stamping the butterfly outline over it. Then the sentiment is stamped directly onto the organdy ribbon.

This is a great technique -- really quite simple but always gives a real WOW effect. Your card is lovely. Thanks for jogging a memory. I don't think I've used my chalks in years.
Always a great technique - fabulous card!
