Chalky

 Hello Everyone,

Today I am playing along with The Paper Players, Less is More, and Cardz 4 Guyz. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

The chalkboard technique is present from the patterned paper I chose from a 'chalky' paper pad. The paper was double-sided. All I had to do was cut to size and flip the paper over. Perfect coordination. The banner is also from the same chalky paper packet. 

The colors are very subdued using only light yellow as the only color on the card. 
The other colors like the chalked up birds are neutral. I also distressed the edges of the card with white ink to look more chalky.

This shows the leaf detail. The 'paper' I used came from the October 2019 MMH kit. I put the word paper in quotes because it looks and feels a wood veneer. You can see the woody texture on the leaves.
