1st Card by Carol Celeste


Gracias





Supplies: 
Stamps by Paper Smooches - Flowers: Calico; Sentiment:  Good Gab
Versa Magic Chalk Ink - Cloud White
Color Pencils from Faber Castell Mix and Match Media Sets in Yellow and Green
Spica Pens - Yellow and Orange
Miscellaneous:  Ribbon, Bling, Corner Rounder

To create this card, I stamped the images using the white chalk ink.  Then I colored them with the colored pencils.  The pencils blend well together or you can use your finger to "smudge" them a bit.  You can try this on all sorts of color paper with all colors of the colored pencils.  I love this technique.  It is really easy and lets you get more from your colored pencils.  I added a bit of bling to the center of the large flowers, some Spica Pen to the smaller flowers and to the sentiment.  To finish the inside, I stamped a flower in yellow chalk ink, the stem in green chalk ink and added a bit of colored pencil to the flower for some interest.

Great job Carol!
