School Days

It's time for a new Twisted Tuesday Challenge...



Theme: School Days
Twist: You have to use chalks somewhere on your creation.

August 7 - 13


You're going to have to look closely to find the "chalk" on my card:



Did you find the chalk?

Here's a hint:


The very subtle coloring on the pages of the books was done with Pebbles, Inc. chalks.

I want to give a BIG THANK YOU to Roxane for gifting me the actual library card that I used on this card. She works at a library and knew I wanted some old library cards, so she mailed me a bundle of them. THANK YOU, Roxane! You're a great friend!!!




Here's the inside of my card:




Now let's see your school creations, complete with chalk.
