I really love these markers! They make blending so easy! I used the green shaded watercolor paper from the Mix In Paper pack along with the grid paper from the same pack. Yes, I did fussy cut the flowers but it was not that bad to cut and it does give it a nice layered look too. Instead of coloring the ribbon that ties the flowers, I used the Silver Stickles. (any opportunity to add stickles is always fun!) Here is everything I used for this card.  Th...
