I chose to use pencils on black using this cute Penny Black set. I didn't catch the glitter from my Wink of Stella pen.
I hope you join us with a Christmas Carol.

I had forgotten all about how well pencils work on black and haven't done this since I first started stamping. What a wonderful effect with those hedgies. I love that you got such a crisp image with white ink, something I've never achieved. Another fresh "Christine" idea!
This parade of little critters is adorable, Christine! I've never colored on black cardstock and it's on my list to try. I love how it's colored up your card!
Oh, good heavens, how cute! You got such good color on the black!
Cute n sweet card and love using wink of stella too...xx
So fun and adorable. Great job colouring on black. I need to work on that.
Super cute card, Christine! I love how you used your pencils on the black panel...the images really pop and I'll bet it's very sparkly in person! Love this sweet Christmas card to pieces :)
Adorable little critters singing their Christmas song! Love them coloured on the black - really depicts a night-time scene which is perfect since they're carrying a lantern.
What an adorable little scene you have colored on the black cardstock. So cute.
What an adorable card Christine! Your little parade of critters look fabulous colored on the black cardstock and work perfectly for the song title...love it!! :0)
I just love the look of the colored pencils over the black Christine - what a fun little parade of festive critters! xx
Your Holly Jolly Christmas song is perfect for the festive jolly critters, my friend. TFS and Stay safe and creative. Love and Hugs..Nancy

Fabulous colouring on the dark cardstock and what an adorable CAS Christmas card x.

They are delightful, and I absolutely love the white on black stamping. The colouring is so effective too against the "night sky".

You chose a happy song and these little critters are just adorable. I'll be humming this all day long! This is a new thing for me to try, coloring on black cardstock. I look the look of this.
Thank you for the delightful ear worm to start my Sunday morning, Christine! And I love the visual you provided to go along with it. Those caroling mice are adorable and your coloring is divine! I hope you are taking care and keeping safe in the hospital environment! Hugs, Darnell
I love the different look you have achieved here Christine with the white embossed hedgies against the black card and the coloured pencils have worked well on the dark card. A very pretty card! x
How cute! These look wonderful against the black and I love the colouring.
I don't know how to use pencils on black but I sure do know I like the way it looks. If I ever get back to card making and working in my art journal, I will give it a go!
