STAMPlorations products Nonni used:

Holiday Sketches: Christmas Candles (retired), Let It Snow, Blossom Sprays #3, Blossom Sprays #1

A good quality pencil sharpener is essential for coloring with colored pencils! You'll want your pencils to be super sharp to be able to fit the small areas in your heat embossing!

Close up of the shine on the image!

I've heat embossed the candle image with gold powder and colored in with Polychromos pencils. I added lots of Stickles and Wink of Stella.

*****

Coloring in with pencils happens in layers. A finished area might have up to 6 layers of color (haven't really counted ever, sorry!). In the bottom you can see a petal with just one layer.

I've colored in the white heat embossed images with Polychromos pencils.

*****

I've water colored the flower and added pencil (blended with Dove blender pen) on top.
