O.M.G. I may have to change my tune about Zigs. In our local crafting group we were talking about our most regretted purchase of 2015 and I mentioned Zigs (although to be fair, the horrible Reeves guache won out). I know--blasphemy! Now it's not that I don't like them, I just hadn't used them as much as I thought I would. Well, it never occurred to me to use them to paint rubber, mist and then stamp. Duh, right? I don't have any other water-based markers so I used these. Wow, wow, wow. I love the brightness and how well it worked. AND, this stamp just arrived this past Wednesday AND AND was on clearance AND AND AND I bought local. Now where are those Chilean avocados I just bought?
The Details: Avery Elle You die and So Happy sentiment, Hero Arts Leaves and Flowers background stamp, Tim Holtz watercolor paper, Recollections black and white 110lb cardstock, VersaFine Onyx Black, Paper Source Sunshine cardstock, Zigs
I was inspired by Fusion, Penny Black and More One for the Girls, and Simon Says Something New
gorgeous. now I want the Zigs. Thanks. ARGH
