I wanted to do something special with this image, and not overwork it with colour.... so I delved into the world of CHARCOAL PENCIL.... my first attempt with stamps and charcoal as a colouring medium!
I coloured the image with charcoal pencil, using a pliable eraser to blend and remove unwanted colour. It was quite a fun trial with the charcoal.... I know I'm going to use it again! The image is mounted on black woven texture paper, then on rose pattern embossed silver paper. The background layer of the card is a text paper (magazine freebie) and the same silver embossed paper. Embellishment trims are the rubbery gel border (what an odd feel!) topped with the etched metal tag, and a black bow to finish.
