Your Are Amazing Mother's Day Card with a Tutorial for Colouring using Stampin' Write Water Based Markers

Today I am going to share a card which would make a fantastic Mother's Day Card or a sweet card to send to a friend - it features a beautiful flower from the new Nature's Perfection Stamp Set coloured with my Stampin' Write Markers.

I wanted to get a pretty blended look on this card and you may be wondering why I did not use my Stampin' Blendabilities.  Yesterday Stampin' Up! announced that due to quality problems in the manufacturing process they are discontinuing the Blendabilities with immediate effect.  I am impressed that they have taken such a firm stance to ensure the continued high quality of the products that they supply.  Most of the Blendabilities already shipped are absolutely OK, but if you are experiencing any problems with yours please contact the demonstrator you purchased them from. 

It is however possible to get a blended coloured look in other ways and I reached for my wonderful Stampin' Write Markers and made a quick video to show you just two of the ways you can colour with them and get a blended look.

They are also wonderful for making multi coloured stamped images and for adding hand written / doodled elements to your cards, scrapbook and memory keeping pages in your favourite and coordinating Stampin' Up! colours.

The flower on this card is from the Nature's Perfection and I have also used the Everything Eleanor and Petite Petals Stamp Sets.  The card is Shimmery White to add a bit of subtle sparkle and the other colours are Mossy Meadow, Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral.

I hope you have fun colouring with your Stampin' Write Markers.

Happy Stampin'
