Frost + Kraft + Layers + Colored Pencils = Yum!

Thanks for stopping back for this fun week of flowers and kraft paper.

I *love* the technique I used on today’s card. You have to try it! I stamped the Meadow Silhouette image - which is a reverse image- with Frost White ink on kraft paper. After heat setting it with my heat gun, I colored in the open flowers very heavily with colored pencils. Finally, I stamped over the whole piece with the Thank You Definition and Soft Brown Shadow Ink. Such bold results…

It’s pretty amazing how the text looks over the white…
