Default MIX 330 - Graphite

Challenge Title: Graphite
Hostess: Lydia
Keyword: MIX330
Gallery:MIX330

My challenge today is simple - use graphite as a medium on your card. There are many options for adding graphite to your cards today, and there's always the good old yellow pencil option. Here are a few of my favorites.

There's tinted graphite:



There's watersoluble graphite that isn't tinted (search Viarco or Artgraf in the gallery):

There's graphite paper:




So have fun with graphite and be sure and use at least one other medium on your card today!

I was trying to see if I could make my own transfer paper last weekend. The answer was no, but my fail was waiting to be made up into something, so here it is...

What luck! I had the pencils Lydia suggested and tried something totally new today. Thanks for the inspiration, Lydia. I always enjoy your videos.
