This ornate gate and fence die is part of the December release from Our Daily Bread designs, Gilded Gate along with a stamp set, The Gate (greeting).
While the black cardstock was still in the die, I took my white gel pen and using the die as a ‘stencil’ added the white. After removing from the die, I took my water brush and ‘smoothed’ out the white, blending it into the cardstock making it not so stark white.
