Hi, stopped and picked up the cotton balls this evening. Just finished watching the video again. Got it typed up so now I’m going to work on a sample. Thank you so much.

Using the colorless marker first, to get the area moist is BRILLIANT!!!! This was the first time I’ve heard that tip, and I’ve watched HUNDREDS of videos on coloring with alcohol markers. Having a moist base for easier blending is wonderful, but I HATE the way it uses up the light-colored markers so fast. THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL SENSIBLE IDEA!!!
Oh Diana, thank you so much. I so appreciate it. If you have any questions, let me know. deb http://www.stampladee.stampinup.net for all your shopping needs
Great video – easy to understand and new ideas for the blending! Great effects! Thanks SO much – can’t wait to try! And…I still have the older sets you used, too! So, I can do them, too! THanks again!
Oh Suzanne, how fun!!! Thank you for leaving me a comment. I so appreciate it. If you have any questions, let me know. deb http://www.stampladee.stampinup.net for all your shopping needs.
