I got a package of the new Zig Watercolor Pens about a month ago. I decided it was time to actually try them out. I have to say for a CAS girl....these things work really easy and the colors are amazing!
I am not fantastic at this watercoloring thing so don't judge right off. I still look at the background and think it looks a mess but it was fun to play around with these pens. I colored an ombre rectangle on a piece of watercolor paper and went in towards the center space with water. Then I used the butterfly die cut on top to get the fun ombre look. I also added a little Copic spritz in the background to tie in with my black sentiment panel. I also added in a strip of gold card stock behind the card front.

These new butterflies dies from My Favorite Things are amazing!! I love the detail. The sentiment is from Somebunny and I heat embossed it on to a little black strip.
Hope you are all having a great day! Thanks so much for stopping in!
Beautiful. It is not a mess, it is art!
