The last time I shared a card using this stamp set I had colored it with Daniel Smith watercolors. Shortly after doing that one I colored another using my Spectrum Aqua markers by coloring them onto a non stick mat and then picking up the color with my water brush. At the time I didn't like it as well as the Daniel Smith one so I put it aside in my unused pile of goodies, I came across it again the other day and since I didn't have the one colored with the Daniel Smith to compare it to, I liked how this turned out, so I thought it would make for a nice Thank you that I needed. I only had to add the sentiment and the butterfly, a little wink of stella clear sparkle pen to the flowers and some pearl drops.
I know I used a red distress ink to stamp it but never wrote down which color.
