Bright and cheery

 
 
Had a wonderful time a the yearly stamping convention in Collinsville, Ill with my mom, Diane, Shirley, Pat, Cheryl, and another Diane.  My splurge was Zig markers and this is my first card I made with them.  I used Floral Duet stamp set by Amuse Studio's.  The flower sequins were from the Morning Star booth at the convention.   The Zig markers are so much fun to color with and blend so well!   A close-up is below:

Beautiful, Donna! Love the vibrant colors and they add sort of a 70s touch to the flowers colored in orange and reds, I love this style a lot!

Hooray for you at being able to join these ladies (some of whom I visit, and I will be joining your Mom's blog!) and find some good schtuff while having great craft companionship. What a lovely effort you've made on your first try with the Zigs. I think you'll find you love these markers. Love the bold brilliant colors you've created on this pretty flower, and what an amazing background you created with the image. (I'm not great with w/c, but I've done better with the Zigs than anything else). TFS & Hugs
