Hi, it's Therese and today I decided to add shading to these beautiful flowers with my Polychromos pencils.
For today's project I used Majestic Bloom with the Coral Berry crisp dye ink and pencils to shade. I stamped the sentiment from Painted Greetings on to a piece of Cherry Wood Cardstock with the Jet Black crisp dye ink and added a border with the Jet Black cardstock.
It was a clean and simple design and with a few hiccoughs along the way I was still able to complete my design and have a video to share the process with you.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.

Delightful card, Theresa! Love the way the white space makes the images pop. Well worth the extra effort to complete it!

What a beautiful card! Your video is full of great tips and tricks. Thank you!
Jaw dropping BEAUTY, Therese! Off to check out the video!
Therese – THANKS SO MUCH for such a beautiful card AND for sharing the process you went through to get there! It makes me feel so much better to know that I am not the only person who sometimes struggles when making cards, though I must admit, mine don’t turn out nearly as amazing as this one. I would never have thought of adding the orange with the pink….truly a gorgeous color combo. Note to self: must try!
Thanks so much for that wonderful video. I love that you made mistakes but kept on going. Sometimes I get the feeling that DT members always do everything perfectly the first time, so it was great to see you’re as human as I am! Love the pencil over the ink technique. Going to try that one myself.
