I feel so excited and happy, this is an unexpected and delightful surprise and I hope the card I made for this challenge lives up to the privilege of this invitation.
Here is my card.
As always, I used my Stampin Up! write markers and my aqua painters to color this image, I just love how the inks blend so beautifully when you water color with them.
Here is a close up of this beautiful blooms, I added a bit of Wink of Stella shimmer to each.
I want to thank all of you at The Retro Rubber blog for choosing my Teddy and Train card as a winner of the last challenge and for your sweet invitation to be your guest stamper for this one. I look forward to seeing all the lovely creations that will be submitted in the next week.
Thank you also, for visiting my blog and for your comments, I appreciate them more than words can say.
Till next time, have a wonderful week.
Maria.

Hello Mary and thank you for your sweet words. I'm always amazed at the beautiful colors and shades I get with the SU markers, they lend themselves beautifully for water coloring since they are water based. I wish I could go hang out with you for an afternoon and just show you how I do this very easy technique.
Hugs.
Thanks, my darling daughter.
Thank you Diane.

Hello Debbie and thank you so much for visiting and for your sweet words. This technique is truly super easy to do with water based markers, like SU's.
Maybe one day I would like to venture into videos but in the mean time, I will try to get a blog post with pictures of how I color my cards.
I'm looking forward to the next Retro Rubber Challenge.
Lovely card, congrats!
