A Chalk Frame for the Night

I walked back through the front door with my piece of craft paper carefully folded in hand, happy to be in from the chilly evening. Up on the smooth wooden credenza, I unfolded the paper flat beside the matchbox. The pink leaf rubbing looked crisp under the dim lamplight. I picked up the small coral-pink chalk stick and tested drawing a soft, thick border along the paper's edge. Chalk dust settled gently across the wood grain. Then, I placed my smooth wooden bead right in the center of the leaf print to keep the paper weighted flat. Sitting back against a book, it felt wonderfully complete. #Sidewalkchalk #Ball #Leaf #Matchbox #Canada
