Valentine's Day Card for Chalk-Ah-Lot Challenge #2

Chalk a Lot is no longer in business.

Here is an explanation of the chalks:

There are 4 types of chalks; powder, dust, metallic and florescent. All powder and dust colors contain an additive which helps to bind the chalk to paper.  A fixative is not required when using the powder and dust colors.  

The metallic and fluorescent colors do not contain the same additive as the powder and dust; therefore they do require a fixative be applied either over or under the metallic and florescent colors.

Powder:  These colors contain an additive which allows different shades to be created.  The degree of change depends on the amount of chalk and pressure applied.  Eight of the powder colors containan additive which creates special effects, including  exciting streaks of color throughout your design.  

Dust:  These are very subtle colors.  The effect you achieve is most like the pallet chalks but can be applied with much more ease.  Their texture allow for a versatility that pallet chalks do not.  

Fluorescent:  These colors are very bright brilliant colors.

Metallic:  These colors provide a rich dazzle and shine.  Stardust, our most popular metallic adds a special shimmer to any design.  It can be added to any area or used to cover your whole design and give luster to the entire piece of art.  

Stardust can also be used to create many metallic colors.  By mixing 1 part Stardust with 2 parts of any powder, dust or florescent color, you can create a rainbow of metallic colors. Stardust can also enhance any of your matte pigment inks by lightly applying Stardust over the stamped image with a cotton ball while the ink is still wet.   This will change any of your matte color pigment ink pads to a rich metallic color.  

Here is the card I made:

Using a cosmetic wedge, I put chalk on the background cardstock to turn the pink slightly red. The heart is a Spellbinders die. Patterned paper is by DCWV and the sentiment I cut out with my Cricut. I heat embossed the heart stamp using Versa Mark ink and Stampendous embossing powder. Red cardstock by Stampin Up. Thanks for looking.
