Chalk Talk for Dynamic Duos and ART Challenges

Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. I hope you are all enjoying this truly glorious fall weather! I have another card to share with you tonight. I saw another great color challenge across at dynamic duos and a fabulous sketch across at ART I didn't just do fulfil the color challenge at dynamic duos, I also managed to fit in the "dessert option" with wet embossing.
