Cathy posed an interesting challenge today with a crayon technique that I have never used. I thought I'd do double duty with this week's FTTC challenge, found on the Flourishes Blog: http://flourishes.org/blog/
Stamped the image from Christmas Candles in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics. Added glaze and gel accents to the ornaments and chargers. Colored the candles in a pale yellow crayon, then lightly covered the rest of the image in grey crayon. Cut with an Oval Nestie then sponged and buffed per the tutorial. Mounted on a Bo Bunny and Island Indigo BG with a Bazzill mat on a Flourishes Cream card.
Made the holly bunches using Debbie Do's nifty tutorial found here: Debbie Do's Autumn Leaf Embellishments by Debbie Do at Splitcoaststampers
Mounted with 3D dots and added KaiserKraft jewels.
Thanks Cathy and Debbie for the inspiration. Thank you for looking and have a peaceful day.
