I hope everyone that celebrates Labor Day is having a nice holiday today. Our weather is all sunshine but a little hot at 91 degrees. I have never had good luck coloring on stamps before but the challenge at https://casmixup.blogspot.com/ is doing that. Okay, I've been trying all sorts of things new to me so why not try this again. It did take me two tries but I like the second result. I used Zig watercolor brush markers in two shades of pink and two shades of green to ink up this 2007 Penny Black wood mounted stamp called Windflower. My daughter in law picked it out for me to make their wedding invitations with. This is only it's second outing. The frame is Gina Marie and the sentiment is Stampin Up. I colored on the stamp, die cut a frame and stamped the greeting so I am entering it in the
Be kind to one another.

This is a real beauty Brenda, love the soft stamping effect and that lacy border is so pretty, Cathy x
Beautiful watercolor effect, Brenda. I love how you framed your pretty flowers too. So pleased you tried our technique at CAS Mix Up. I agree, this is not an easy technique for me either, but practice and the MISTI do help:-) Thank you for sharing. Hugs..
I haven't tried using Zigs on a rubber stamp, but you make me want to! This is so pretty, Brenda & I really do love that beautiful frame!
This turned out just lovely! I don't own any zigs, but you put them to great use with this card. Not only are the flowers colored beautifully, but the die-cut frame is gorgeous too! Well done!
That’s a really pretty card, Brenda.
Your flowers are so soft and pretty, Brenda and the frame is lovely on the red card. A beautiful composition.
Wonderful card design and those flowers are done perfectly too with the water color look.
Your watercoloured flowers and leaves are so pretty Brenda! Great work with this technique! Love the pretty edging and the wonderful sentiment. Adding the coloured card base really adds a big punch of colour! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx
I don't see how you couldn't love this take, Brenda! It is absolute perfection in terms of color and coverage!! And I think your choice of frame is sensational!! Glad you had good weather for the weekend, if a bit hot!! Hugs, Darnell xxoo

Wow Brenda, this card turned out stunning! I think you have master the stamping with markers my friend. I love how beautiful your flower looks, I love that flower. The mat you have it on is just beautiful as well and I love that you placed it on a color card base. Well done my friend! Hugs, Brenda
It's a good thing you decided to try it again because this is beautiful! The pinks and greens are the perfect shades and go together so well. I love the edging detail on the die cut too. I know I attempted that technique years ago, but with better markers and a MISTI, I just might have another go at it.
This is a beautiful flower, Brenda! I LOVE how you've used the two colors of pink and of green to ink it up! A beautiful, lacy frame for it too! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Mix Up!
Hi Brenda, a lovely stamp and beautiful card, love the fancy frame... have a wonderful week... Megan
Beautiful card , Brenda! What a nice frame. On my card the grounding was nothing more than a happy accident to be honest 😊
What a pretty floral stamp, and what a good job you did with the marker inking. Such a lovely look, and I like your new signature! TFS & Hugs
Your card is pretty, Brenda. Lovely stamp. Kisses, my friend.
