Dry Embossed background of Leaves with Chalk

Finally! After many hours, probably an ulcer and high blood pressure I have a photo to share with you. You see my last computer was full of bugs {not literally} and now I'm scared to death to download anything including photo editing software that may contain any of these malware buggies. I think I'm good now but still have some reorganizing to do with the new computer and then I will be able to post more daily than every couple of days I have been doing.

So my card is for the new Chalk Ah Lot challenge 
Leaves with Chalk

I used The Paper Studio embossing folder and lightly applied Dandy, Teddy Bear, Ginger, and Brick Powdered Chalk by Stamp N Plus to the debossed side of the Recollections cardstock. The paper behind the debossed cardstock is by Hot off the Press and the cardstock behind the stamped sentiment is by Bo Bunny. The stamp is by Inkadinkado and I used multiple Colorbox pigment inks to get it so colorful. After it dried I applied distress ink to the edges, working my way toward the center. Then I sprayed it with Copper Perfect Pearls with water. It's very pretty in real life. 

Thanks for looking and I hope I've inspired you to get out your chalks and join us at Chalk Ah Lot for the Leaves with Chalk challenge.
