Creating Sea Foam (Clean Color Pens)

Warning! Super easy technique ahead! You’ll be looking for any of your stamps to make sea foam with because it’s that easy. And if your markers are dry? It works even better! (Yes I need to order some replacements!)

Just awesome Sandy and I must remember to dip my Zigs once they begin drying.

Hi Sandy, I love Lesley Oman’s stamps (she is a good friend) from Heffy Doodle and this new set with Birds of a Feather is fabulous. I love the story you tell about how the birds are you and your friends. It is hilarious! Great water colouring too. Would never have thought to have all the birds the same colour. :O)

Delightful and bright happy card and great tip on using dryish Zig markers. I have been Watercoloring every chance I have thanks to you! World Watercolor Month was just the push I needed to dive in. Fascinated by medium and a little intimidated….but what the heck
