I used a white gelato, but I invite you to experiment with other colors. You can also use your punches to create custom embellishments. If you create a large background, as I have done here, you may find that less is more when it comes to adding embellishments for the layout.

This is such an awesome technique, Christy! And I love the pop of the bright colors from the Chevron pieces! I haven't tried Gelatos yet, but they may have to be on my next thing to try list!
