A One Layer Card over at Simply Less is More Challenge #411 with the theme “Off Center”. My card base is green, in other words this is my white space, to which I stamped an old favourite, Dyan Reaveley Further Around the Edge stamp, with Versamark and pesto green EP. Then with Polychrome colouring pencils I first coloured the leaves in white and gradually added two other tones of green. I masked the leaves and ink blended a little green to the bottom of the card. I lightly salted this still humide surface with the same pesto green EP. Finally, I stamped a Lawn Fawn BEE in gold, to which I applied some Liquid Pearls.
Thanks for stopping by, HUGz, Joanna

I love the blended colors in the leaves and how the embossing powder has stayed on the wet ink! A beautiful mixed media card, my friend!

What a wonderful technique and love the card. Thank you for the reminder on how well pencil works on color cardstock for a fabulous effect. I always look for your use of embossing powder and you never disappoint.
