Thinking of You...

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!

    This is lovely. You did a great job using those pens. I love the butterfly die and the pink looks fabulous against the green.
