prismacolor blending for altenew challenge

Felicitationes France! And nice job, Croatia! It's amazing how the World Cup has a way of influencing daily life in our house. And how its end, leaves me feeling someone's moved out...

In that funk, I decided to quickly post this card I made yesterday. Lots of coloring with Prismacolor pencils on dark cardstock. Lots. But I am happy with the result. What do you think?

Altenew Arabesque Medallion stamp
Ranger Platinum embossing powder
Prismacolor pencils


Stamped the medallion twice and heat embossed them. Filled in some areas with my Versamark pen and embossed them too. Then I colored. And colored. And colored some more. Here's a great video from Yana S. if you're interested. I chose my pencil colors (four blues, black and white), BTW, based on this month's inspiration challenge at Altenew.
