Clean and Simple One Stamp Three Ways



For Day 9, One Stamp Three Ways, I chose the technique of using white ink to stamp on black cardstock, and then coloring over the white with Prismacolor pencils.  I tried this twice, once using Colorbox Frost White and once using PTI Fresh Snow, and felt like the Fresh Snow gave a clearer result. 


Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Hero Arts Slanted Tree, Asian Fusion
Paper:  True Black, Kraft, Pure Poppy
Other:  Prismacolor pencils, Stickles 


Thanks for Visiting
