Day 10 - "I"

I love the contrast between clean white pencils and warm, homey kraft card stock, it's one of my favourite combinations. I've added lots of Stickles Rock Candy and Icicles around the image panel to give the impression of snow and ice, and I coloured the baubles with white and grey pencils with a white gel pen "string".


YOUR TURN: Create a card or papercraft project using the letter "I" as your prompt.

Wow! It's amazing what white and gray pencils can do to make an image pop. Your card is masterful! Love the framing with the icicles. As a kid I would love to see icicles on our gutters. It was such fun to break them off and have a winter "treat."

Hi Beccy, a stunning card, love the kraft and white colour scheme, I think todays words for our weather are icy and inundation, we are expecting a months worth of rain in the next three days. Have a good one... Megan

Beautiful card design and the icicles is a perfect "I" design. I think we are in for a few of our own with freezing rain turning to snow as a possibility! I hope the electricity stays on so I can be warm and crafting.

NanaConnie said...

Beccy, you do the most incredible coloring when you use white pencil on kraft! Nobody does it better. I've tried it myself without much success but I do love seeing your beautiful creations. :-D
