Today's TLC challenge was to use the Black Magic technique. Sometimes, a lack of the proper supplies leads to the "mother of invention". That was my case, I don't have watercolor pencils, so I decided to improvise. My first card was done with Prismacolor pencils. This time I stamped my image with VM and heat embossed with white EP. I then sponged my opaque white PTI Fresh Snow ink onto the petals. I let that dry and then came back with my Pebbles Chalks on a Q-tip. That's why I'm calling it "hybrid", but it gave a pleasing effect for me. It probably isn't the "true" Black Magic. I kept it pretty simple(for me) so I put it into the CAS challenge too! : )

What a beautiful effect on the flower. Love the gems too.
