I tried something a bit different for me today, making this card.
I used a piece of black card, covering the surface with a chalk bag before stamping the Lavinia Stamps "Street Light" and "Luka" the cat in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink. I then coated the stamped areas with Wow! Clear Gloss Embossing Powder and heat set.
You'll notice in the photo above, the black surface of the card has chalky residue, the reason for this is that it helps to stop the embossing powder to stick to areas you don't want it. The chalk will dust away afterwards.
I then used four shades of Pan Pastels: Titanium White, Hansa Yellow Tint, Orange and Black to create the light coming from the street light. I then set the Pan Pastel with a good spray of hair spray before adding some touches of white gel pen and black fine liner pen.
Sam your description and what you used is great. I love the residue on the black. One to try 🌹

DeleteThis looks great with the Pan Pastels on black card to make the beam of light Sam and I love the cute cat and that touch of yellow coming from the lamp, and the added bit of black and white for the highlights and shadows finish it perfectly. x
