I made these cards for a class I'm teaching. Two of the techniques, I learned over at StampTv and I love them...the sunrays tech is just adorable and so versatile that can be used on any card occasion as well as the embossed foil. The watercoloring tech is one of my fav...love the different tones you can get with just one color marker and a blending pen. The markers I used are SU, but I'm dying to try the COPIC ones...I've heard they are just marvelous.
