Made this by holding a piece of glossy white cardstock over a candles' flame. The soot from the candle (use a cheap candle to get a sootier flame!) blackens the glossy card stock and you can experiment with the pattern that you get. When you've got the amount of soot that you want, you stamp onto the the soot with a clean dry stamp. You then spray with Krylon sealant to hold the image.

Is this cool or what? Made me think of a black and white photo - very pretty. I'm very new to techniques and haven't seen this before - what is krylon sealant? Is it like hairspray? Great card btw.
