Star Stenciled in Yellow Chalk for Chalk Ah Lot challenge

I made this next card for the challenge at Chalk Ah Lot. The challenge is to use a stencil with chalk. My card below uses Special Day Stamp by Stamp N Plus and Dandy powdered chalk with paint also by Stamp N Plus.

I mixed the powdered chalk with the paint and applied it to the stenciled area with a cosmetic wedge. It's a little light in places but I kind of liked it that way. The stencil is by The Crafter's Workshop. With the leftover chalk/paint mixture I covered the piece of cardstock that is behind the star panel. 

The patterned paper is by Pink Paislee and I used a Martha Stewart punch on the edges. The shear ribbon is by Pebbles and the star brad is unknown. I stamped the sentiment on the vellum and heat-embossed it in black. After it cooled I die cut it out with a Spellbinders die. 

Thanks for looking.
