Did you see the recent video that Jennifer McGuire showed us the new Faber Castell Big Brush markers?  Check it out here.  I was very kindly given two to try out/demo.... and I must admit I love them.  I used the black one here on the Hero Arts Real Salvia stamp which I inked up and stamped on white cardstock.  I added colour to the stamped image by using pale green gems and a glitter butterfly.

I really liked the result and see myself buying more of these to "play" with!   Jennifer - stop enabling!! LOL!!!

Entering this into this month's Hero Arts Challenge.

Thanks for peeking, hope you are having a great weekend. 

Make your own happiness!

Love this sentiment from Hero Arts.  Paired it with a stamp I picked up recently in Crafty Alley in Killarney.  It's a 2005 Hero Arts stamp that I inked up with distress inks, spritzed with water and had fun with!  I then coloured the pearls with copics to match the textured cardstock.
