This has such a fabulous effect, Christine. I love your innovative backgrounds and doing things most of us would never think to do. Love that additions to your background too as well as the highlights in white. Not sure what black edition pencils are but I sure will look it up!

OMGoodness, this is gorgeous, Christine! I used to love doing pencils on black over a solid white image as you've shown here, but your results are next level. Beautiful what you've done with the background to make the flowers pop. I love it!
