Hello, Kraftie Friends! 

I made a quick CAS card to share today...

The flowers/leaves were colored with Fabrico markers + watercolored using the ink from the markers...I scribbled on my craft mat and used wet paintbrushes to pick up the colors.

Other supplies: Stamps (CTMH - flowers are from this set) + Thin Cut + Distress Stickles + Foam Tape.

I put together a quick video tutorial:
