OK, so I decided to try something totally out of my comfort zone for this card...coloured pencils. This is the first card I created using only coloured pencils exclusively as my colouring medium. I am pretty happy with the results and I think you will be seeing more images coloured with Coloured Pencils in the future. Did I mention that I received the 150 set in Prismas and the 120 set of Polychromos for Christmas...yup - I'm very spoiled.

So to create this card, I simply stamped the image on Kraft Cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black ink. I then stamped it again but this time on masking paper. I cut out the image on the masking paper and then applied it overtop of the image on the kraft cardstock and Ink blended Broken China and Peeled paint Distress Oxcide Ink overtop to create my background. Once that was done, I started colouring...now this did take me some time as you have to slowly build up layer by layer of the pencil. Like I said, I am still learning but I really did enjoy doing something out of my comfort zone.

I hope you enjoyed our Sneek Peek for the release!

 Have a great day!
