I don’t know if you like Google as much as I do. What did we do before it? I wanted to know what color Freesias were when I got this stamp set – and there are SO many! And the red and yellow one was by far the one that caught my eye. So that’s what I used for coloring today’s flowers – and I included a trick I found for those colors that just don’t like to break down with water.
It’s a pretty slick tip that can work with lots of markers!
The colors used on my flowers: Blue 032 for the background, Green 043 and 046 for the leaves, Red 022 and 024 plus Yellows 050 and 052 for the flowers. Clickable links in the supply list below if that helps you!

This is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for reminding me once again how beautiful the zig pens can be. I feel exactly the same way about google. I’ve lost count on how many problems I’ve found solutions to just by googling it. 🙂
