In Color Birds


At the open house, everyone had the option of watercoloring or using the NEW in-color markers. They could choose the cupcakes or the birds for their card. In this card, I used the markers :) Don't you just LOVE these new in-colors? Can't go wrong with getting the markers to see what colors you like best!

In Color Cupcakes


We made this card at the new catalog open house with all of the new in-colors....from left to right...Crushed Curry, Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Dusty Durango, Soft Suede, Rich Razzleberry. These cupcakes were stamped in Basic Brown ink and then watercolored using the aquapainter and by squishing ink on the lid of the ink pad.

Sweetest Ever


I really like this new Hostess Set...The More the Merrier. These cupcakes are too fun :) I used these scraps that were already on my desk. Just a tip, if you're watercoloring black ink, be sure to get the ink directly from the ink refill. :)
