Here is a card that I did for my Techniue class earlier this month.
First I stippled colors on Glossy card stock using More Mustard, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive and Elegant Eggplant.
Then I held the card carefully over a taper candle until I got enough soot on it to suit me. I also burned the edges of the card at the same time.
I then took the Haunted House and Tree images, inked them with my Versamark pad, and stamped them into the soot on the card.
When it was done, I sprayed an Acrylic Sealant over the card, mounted it to Old Olive card stock, put it onto an Only Orange card base, added Black ribbon and I was done.
