I used a digi image which was a freebie colouring page I think, and I used three shades of red and two shades of green as well as grey and black for the flowers centres, and a light brown for the seed head. I did watch someone on line using these pencils and he said it was best to build up the colour slowly moving from light to medium tone and then dark which is what I did on the flowers, but for the leaves I just used two greens. I am very happy with the pencils which were reasonably priced and in my opinion good for the money with some lovely colours across the 36 pencils. I cut it with a Crealies pierced die and layered onto another pierced layer and added the sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink but this time I didn't heat emboss as I had already put the card together and didn't want to warp the layers with the heat from the heat gun.

Beautiful card and great shading with the pencils. I have some Lyra pencils and really like them ♥
A lovely corner poppy design, beautifully coloured. Always good to have a new tin of coloured pencils I think 😉
You gave yourself a nice present, these are good pencils to colour with. And you did that very well, the poppy is lovely and really pretty against the white! Love the added panel from Crealies, it gives your card an elegant touch! Your friend will be thrilled when she gets this card from you! Have a nice weekend, Pat!

Oh this is a very lovely soft card, Pat! And your coloring is wonderful. I have several Lyra pencils in my old miscellaneous brands, and they are the creamy and reliable, so you made a great choice in my opinion. I also have their watercolor pencils and crayons and it's a good brand. XOX
