It seems as if Blendabilites are all that I can play with recently, I am loving these new markers and learning more each day about how to get the effects that I want with them.
For today's card I colored the big flower in the Bloom with Hope Hostess set. With 6 two step stamps of botannical images and 5 sentiments, it's a very versatile set. And of course, perfect to color!
I like leaving some white space and using a very slight pressure on the lightest shade to cover the petals for a bit of an airy look. I look forward to sharing my tips in a video soon.
Here's the rest of the card. You know I love my rhinestones - who knows how many I'll be sprinking on every card now that I can use the Blendabilites to color them!

Love your Blog and look forward to your ideas and so happy when you share a technique. Would you explain how you did the background piece for the Stamp Review card, By The Tide. You said you used salt. Did you use reinker ink and water? Thanks for the info and have a joy filled week.
