Crayon flowers on black

I was surprised how well these wax oil pastels worked. I thought I was pushing it — trying them on an image with quite small petals and leaves — and I didn’t expect to be able to get anywhere near the amount of blending I did. It’s another one of those things where you think you must try it again soon and then completely forget about it…

I kept the card design simple: I just die-cut the panel using a stitched rectangle, added a sentiment using the same embossing powder, and mounted it flat on card base.

Supplies:

• stamps:
  Penny Black – delightful
  WPlus9 – doodle buds (sentiment)
• dies:
  Create A Smile – double stitched rectangles
• inks:
  Versamark
• embossing powder:
  Ranger – liquid platinum
• colour:
  Caran d’Ache – Neocolor I wax oil pastels
• paper and card:
  Papermill Direct – plain – black
  Papermill Direct – pearlised – grey

Another catch-up post. This card was created on 1st September 2016 as part of a brief blitz on my PHD box.
