The button is vintage and the sentiment is from SRM stickers. Notice the sharp boarder in white? It’s the negative from the inside boarder when I cut it out. Make sense?? Is there anything you are looking for in a video from me?? Just send me an email I would love to hear our suggestions.

    This is the first time I have seen these markers in action… They are so much like Copic but seems to be more affordable… Thanks for introducing them to us. Your coloring is amazing… Love your blog..

  38. Karen McAlpine says

    Very pretty coloring! I have a few of the Marvy Le Plumes. I have not tried covering the area with the blender first and then adding the color. Thanks for the tip. Great card!

  40. Pam says

    This is so helpful Kathy – I’ve finally managed to get myself signed into a YouTube Channel (I think) & left a comment for you there as well as on Simon Says.
    I found it so helpful to see your flicking & the way you describe it as sweeping & love seeing your trademark white dots being made – it’s not as simple as one might think to create random spots so they look OK.
    Thanks for all you do & all the best for the holiday which I think you celebrate differently.

    Thanks for the tutorial – it is really the best one I have seen on using markers. You took some of the mystery out of the technique so I feel more confident about trying it. Maybe with the stamps I win?!

  58. Jennifer J says

  69. debbie says

    loved the video! I have a question..Could you use these markers with the Copics? That would really add to the different colors in your collection if you could.

  74. Gabriele says

    thanks for showing us how you color. It seems so simple now that I saw you do it, but for the life of me I could not really figure it out on my own. I’ve admired your coloring techniques for a long time. Great to see it on video. Thanks for taking the extra time for this. I know it’s a lot of work.

  76. Pat says

    This is great! I’ll have to keep an eye out for those markers–they’re way more affordable than the Copics. Thanks for the great tutorial!

  79. thebridgeamit says

    i could watch your videos all day! they are very relaxing while very informative! i can’t wait to try this feathering effect.
    i can’t wait for part two! i put this stamp on my wish list at simon says….

  82. MaryKay says

    Very pretty. I watched you do both flowers in the videos and I think you did great. We are always our worse critics on our own stuff.
