For this week's ways-to-use-it challenge, we're to show a New Year's resolution. Well, I resolve to master my faber-castel gelatos. Thanks to Can You Digi and hycct, I now have a set of ALL the colors. A little intimidating! I've seen the You tube videos, and just hadn't worked up the courage to get messy with them. Thanks for the motivation.
I smeared the colors on some neenah white, blended with my fingers, overstamped with a spritzed bg stamp, and then stamped the silhouette sailboat.
Clearly, I've not mastered the medium yet!
Thanks for looking, and please have mercy.

Kudos for you and having a New Years Resolution...I haven't heard of gelatos (except the ones you eat, mmmm - I digress) so now I will need to google and check it out....seems to create a stunning effect. Beautiful card.
