<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a project I've been eager to try using</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ordinary colored pencils. I just love their </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vibrancy, and just think how many gifts you </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
could make with one package of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
colored pencils!<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this great tutorial over at<br />
