Today KellyJean's technique challenge is Pencil Me In. I looked & looked for a stamp to use & finally decided on this stamp from Anita. I used a plain ole' #2 pencil after stamping in Going Gray, stamped off. I decided I didn't like it plain, so added a touch of color with a sponge. I also used pointillism for the flower center. There was some sunshine when I took the photo, but it still seems kind of dark. This was fun to do. Thanks for the idea.
Thanks for stopping by.

Wonderful penciled image and I love the touch of color. I kind of wanted to do that with mine, but was too afraid to try after all the effort to Sade with the pencil.
