In my video I share 3 different ways to color. I use the Watercolor Pencils with a Blender Pen, our Alcohol Marker Blends, and our many Marvelous Markers which are a water base ink and can be used for many different techniques. During Sale-A-Bration you can receive a free stamp set and 2 sets of the Marvelous Markers absolutely free when you purchase Stampin' Up's! Starter Kit. That's a $91 value and a great way to save even more! I tell you about it in the video or read about it in my previous blog post.

Stampin' Up! just released more products that you can earn free during Sale-A-Bration. It really is our biggest sale of the year so make sure you take advantage of it before it ends!
