I am participating in the
Light It Up for Autism Awareness Blog Hop
The purpose of this blog hop
is to draw awareness to autism. We probably all have someone in our life that has autism. There are so many fantastic sponsors that have shown their support for Autism Awareness and you can see the complete list HERE.
I just love these pencils and decided to make a border of them using Teacher's Pet. I used 11 different blue Copic markers and colored using the one pen shading technique. I put on my color, let it dry then went back and added my shadow, repeating til I got the look I wanted. Then I went in with some grays for further shadows. Then I used the blender pen and white gel pen for highlights.
Can you see my piece of vellum?
I wasn't sure what I wanted to use for my sentiment panel, the black or vellum. I found I liked them layered and used them both! I embossed with the white embossing powder. I only put tape on the end part of my black sentiment strip so the end sticks up a little.
Have fun hopping!
