I tried something different: let's call it coloring with twine. Instead of coloring the heart in this cute image, I filled in the shape with baker's twine.What do you think of it?
The digi image is colored with pencils , I even penciled in the knitted ribs on his hat and gloves. The dark blue strip is a piece of white core cardstock I came across in my snippets file. I embossed it with snowflakes and sanded the high spots with sandpaper, although I guess I should have sanded more to reveal more of the white core. The sentiment is on a tag trimmed with a hand-drawn stitched border. The snowflake is a brad.
