Valentine Card featuring Spectrum Noir Colored Pencils and Gerda Steiner Designs Digital Stamps

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a Valentine card featuring Gerda Steiner Designs. This little pig holding a heart is so sweet. I recently bought my first set of Spectrum Noir colored pencils and in the video I explain what I’ve learned so far.

Tips from this card/video:

With colored pencils it is more important to go from light to dark to achieve good blending.

Wrap the twine all the way around the panel to make it easier to tie the bow.

Use a black marker around fussy cut images for a more finished look.

Challenges:

Pile It On: Use Hearts or Flowers
