This clever Christmas craft project was kindly contributed by designer Granny Pat. Please email Granny Pat with any questions regarding this project.

What you need: Some writing tablet paper I used linen kind from drug store. l box school type colored chalk of various colors l glass pan about 9x13 Warm water What to do:

Fill glass pan about half way with warm water. From the box of chalk take a stick of chalk and with paring knife scrape some chalk on top of the water...add another color chalk and maybe another ...dip one sheet of paper into water and let the chalk catch onto the paper...take out and put onto towel to dry.

I used the same three colors for several sheets then either add more colors or change water and start again. The papers after they are dried can be ironed...and folded as desired or left one length. I even did the front of plain envelopes to match. Of course you can play around with the colors of chalk. This is a neat and inexpensive gift and it turns out pretty.
