I have another Verve card to share with you today. I got super stumped earlier in the week where all I could do was stamp images and color them. Even that wasn't turning out right. Usually when that happens I just quit, but I was DETERMINED!! Kind of like with the tag on the fairy card. {insert determined face, usually with tongue sticking out to help}
So I turned to Julee's Mojo Monday sketch challenge for some help. And look! I think it worked!
Ok, so I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I stamped the image from the Thankful Blossoms set with Brilliance Graphite Black on watercolor paper and then colored them with Copic markers. I love the way Copics blend on watercolor paper! My colors were inspired by the Tres Jolie paper by My Mind's Eye, which while trying to link, I have sadly discovered is ALL GONE!! Sad.
My favorite part of this set, though, is this sentiment. I love it because it can be used for so many different types of cards. It could be a thank-you, a congratulations, thinking of you, encouragement, or whatever else you can think of! And yall know I'm a sucker for that scripty font. *wink*
Well that's enough blabbering for one day I think. Have a fabulous and AMAZING weekend!!

Yep, definitely worked. And I love your colors. I've been wondering how the copics would do on watercolor paper. Good to know.
