Art Impressions Bunny & Ducky Mini Cards| Clean Color Markers | AmyR Spring & Easter Card Series #9

I feel like I'm racing against time here! With Easter being so early I haven't had the chance to make nearly as many cards as I'd hoped - but I'm still making them and sharing them with y'all regardless. The nice thing about having this blog and YouTube is that the inspiration can always be saved for next year and later ;) ;).

These are 4 Bar Size Cards (3 1/2" by 4 7/8")

I showed this little Art Impressions Bunny & Ducky Mini Set in a haul some time ago - and FINALLY got a chance to use them on a card. I couldn't decide between them so I made 2 more simple cards with them.

I pulled out my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers (what a mouthful - even to type LOL!) and watercolored them in. I used Strathmore 140b Cold Press watercolour paper and am REALLY happy with how these markers worked on it. I was having difficulty before when I would color directly onto the paper with the marker then try to "pull" the color out with a water brush and the color didn't want to move and I had a bunch of harsh lines. I had a feeling at the time it was the paper I was using and I was right. If anything these markers want to MOVE - I show in the video and mention how the color will just go everywhere if you're not careful LOL! 

LOL I get a total kick out of these images - they're just so cute - and I love having the "backs" for the inside of the card (y'all know how I like to finish the insides). I'm pretty sure my munchkins will get a kick out of them too when I give them these!

To see how they came together check out my video below:
