A Spring 'Hello' all my blogging friends!
I'm sharing a trio of cards made with some new coloring tools, won, (yes I won!)
on Ivana's blog http://www.ivanacreates.com/
They sent me a set of 24 Wonder Stix, and a very sweet note of congratulations.
I couldn't wait to play with my new crayons. and yes, they look like crayons,
but color and blend like pastels.
Ive been enjoying a new set of stamps from Altenew, 'Wallpaper Art',
another of their matchless florals, and stamped them with some of their
new inks out this spring.
Ist stamped in Marigold, then colored the petals with my new Wonder Stix.
The colors in the set are all pastel-y and blend beautifully!
I really didn't spend all that much time coloring, just wanted to see how they
blended. No dust, no odor, just easy placement with the tips.
I think I used a PTI color to stamp with on this card, probably Prairie Grass. I love
that softer faded green, and the pastels came alive against it's duller shade. Hard to
see, but also added Glossy Accents to the center of this bloom.
And one more with pinks and a soft lavender with ivory tips, is this card stamped with
Altenew's Limeaid and Fresh Leaf.

Hope you got some inspiration today. It's always fun to see how something new
on the market works out on paper. And I've just become their newest fan!
