This is a favorite technique - using a white embossed bg - this time, with an addition of chalk. I used some of the Stamp 'n Plus powdered chalk - just received as a prize from Chalk ah Lot. I mixed it with water and painted it on the leaves - it looks grey here but IRL is a lovely green. I like the way that I could use the aqua brush and control where it is placed. I added some gems, and butterflies. The image is from my stash of pre colored items - ready to use when needed. The mats and butterflies are a dark green for the spring look.
