The Single Marker Promotion has been extremely popular, and is extended until December 14 to order any of your favourite colours ... I am thinking i could do with some of those colours to match the new summer papers.

On the card above I used water colour paper and stazon ink to stamp the Embrace life flower.

Using three of my coloured markers (Ballet blue, lavender lace and almost amethyst) I quickly drew the ink on the flower petals and with my aquapainter wet the inks and encouraged them to blend into each other for a water colouring effect. It looks quite scary at first then as the water dries on the paper the inks blend into each other quite nicely.

I have used my brand new scallop edge punch for the edge of the lavender lace cardstock

...and a chunky brad from the silver styled hodgepodge hardware.

The ribbon is elegant eggplant because it goes with all my purples!
