Wings of Chalk...

New Hampshire weather has us experiencing a two hour delay for school, which suddenly turned into a CANCELLATION! You mean I'm up, showered and NO place to go!

My creation "stemmed" around my friend, Asela's SOTM Delicate Wings released in January by Cornish Heritage Farms and extended through February. I {HEART} Asela and her designs! There's still time to add this beauty to your private collection! You know that old addage... snooze, you lose! *wink*

During Super Bowl Sunday I finally hung-up the stamps when I just couldn't seem to pull my creation together. Besides I needed to watch the New England Patriots get their hinny's whooped! *sad face* Today... with the weather an all... definitely seemed fitting to get the stamps out and finalize this creation once and for all! How do you think it turned out? Be gentle with me... *LOL* I think it may even fit the CPS Sketch50 this week.

Xtra -
1. Backgrounder too small... camoflage with piercing, ribbon or whatever you can imagine.
2. Remember to use a "workable fixatif" when using chalk in a design.
3. Hammered eyelets can be achieved with an eyelet setter courtesy of my friend, Joanne

Expecting to awaken to another possible 6 inches of flurries tomorrow. Will we be attending the winter recreation program or not? We'll just have to take a wait and see approach! Attempting another design for your viewing pleasure, but today was like having several days attack me all at once!
