Today's color challenge just says fall. I tried something I've never done before. I embossed the image and colored with two mediums...copics and chalks. I colored with the copics first where I wanted more intense color. I didn't want the chalk residue to get onto my copics. I then fininished coloring with the chalks. You have to do it with a very light touch. I then ran it through the embossing folder again. It brought out more of the outline of the embossed area. tfl
