I have been waiting for today because I have something super awesome to share with you!! Not only do we have a great sketch by the lovely Kim Singdahlsen at Freshly Made Sketches, I also finally get to share some information about a product review I did for Splitcoaststampers!
I have been using the amazing new pencils from Chameleon and I created this card by combining the Chameleon Color Tone Pens with the Color Tone Pencils. Wow, they are great together! I shared details and my thoughts on paper choices over at Splitcoaststampers so please check the entire review from the review team here: CHAMELEON COLOR TONE PENCILS REVIEW
To help you understand a bit more of how the products work together, I made a quick video showing you how I did the coloring:

I made the flowers the star of the show but I could not resist adding a doily that seemed perfect for the sketch! I used Night of Navy Baker’s Twine to coordinate with the blue in the flowers and thought this great sentiment from Ellen Hutson’s Lovely worked beautifully with the sketch.
The Freshly Made Sketches design team has created some beautiful work to inspire you and the Splitcoaststampers Review Team has samples that show many facets of these new pencils. I’ll be back tomorrow with another card I created for the review. Until then, have a great day!

The simple elegance of this is fabulous! Such a pretty card! Now off to watch your video!
This is lovely!! I like the simplicity of the design and your flowers look fabulous. I will watch your video later but am curious about the pencils. I just bought the pens and they are sitting on my desk just waiting for me to have time to play!!
Wow, this card is stunning! Love the grays with just a hint of yellow. And your video is great – very informative.
What an elegant card Jen! Those flowers are gorgeous and I love your colouring! Just amazing!
This is so beautiful! I love the depth of color you’ve got on those flowers. And what a great video 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous card (thanks for making my sketch look so good!!) And thank you for the review. I think even coloring-challenged me might be able to handle them!
Absolutely stunning! I am loving the perfection of these flowers and the softness you’ve given them – just divine!
