Happy Wednesday!!
I used watercolor paper on today’s card because I originally was going to watercolor it. But… I ended up just coloring with Stampin’ Up! markers. I really like the textured look with distress inks!! I love when I deviate from the plan and find something interesting.
I used both of the stamps that come with the Hero Arts Wildflower Garden set – don’t you love it? It’s the same stamp I used on THIS CARD several weeks ago.
Enjoy the card video and have a great week!!

Love your pretty card, Darlene! Hero Arts even mentioned it on Twitter today. Yay! 🙂
Oh, and your Zumba class looks like SO much fun! I’ve taken some classes before in the past, and I always had a good time. I sure wish I lived closer, so I could take one of your classes. My boyfriend’s mom actually lives in Dallas, so maybe the next time we visit I can check it out!
Thanks for sharing both videos today!

Found you by way of the Hero Arts blog. What a beautiful card, and I really appreciate the tutorial. I am curious as to why you use Neenah instead of white cardstock, so I’ll give it a go to see how I like it. TFS.

@Beth – I used Stampin’ Up! white cardstock for the background colors. I used Neenah white cardstock for the copic coloring because the copic markers blend a lot better with this paper. They also don’t bleed as much with Neenah.

Great card and video! Thanks so much for sharing the “how-to” with us!

Great video except that music takes away from your instructions. Not all of us like music when we are trying to watch a stamping video.

This card is so pretty! Love the technique using the chalk ink stamped image in the background. I will have to try this. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
