Stencilling on Pastels

Today I've made more cards using the new Pergamano Technique, Stencilling on Pastels. I did two cards a few days ago, and thought I'd made more and also to really test this new technique. I have to say, it is very easy to use and you do get lovely results with shading, like a real painting. All it is applying the pastels on to the Stencil and with a damp finger rub the pastels from the Stencil to the parchment paper. I've tried the technique on both ordinary parchment as well as Fantasy White Parchment. On the ordinary parchment, the result is more dramatic if you place an ordinary white piece of paper under, and it is just stunning on the Fantasy White. The pastels give a lovely sheen on the parchment. One tip, make sure you rub off all the residues from the pastels from your parchment, with a damp finger just rub until all the residues disappear onto the parchment, otherwise you will have spots left on your "painting".
