A little Black Magic

Here's the new technique that I have been trying to master.  I made this one today and I am really quite happy with how it turned out, considering it is only the second card I have made using this technique.  Out of the cards that I made today, these are both my husband's and Matthew's favourite.

The technique is called "Black Magic" and has probably been around forever but I have only just discovered it.  It is so simple really.  You only need to stamp your chosen stamp in Whisper White Craft Ink and colour with your favourite watercolour pencils (I used the heat gun on mine just to make sure it was dry enough to colour).  Once coloured, I added some white gel pen to give the effect of snow on the trees and ground.  Pretty simple but quite effective.

What do you think??
