I needed a quick, simple thank you card for my neighbor who always does such nice things for us :O) This is what I came up with.
I colored the tree trunk and branches with my Chocolate Chip marker first, wiped most of the stray brown that got on the leaves, then colored the leaves with my Positively Pink marker. Huffed a couple of times and pressed it to the paper :O)

Kristin: I saw your card in the Thank You Occasions Gallery. What beautiful colors together. Love that PIP together with CC and your hardware looks fabulous. Gotta love the swirls and paper piercing also! Great job!

This is so pretty. Pink and brown is a wonderful color combo. We did a card in stamp club with the other stamp from this set. My demo had us stamp the whole image with light blue and then color the stem with a brown marker right over the blue. Now I have 2 different techniques to get this effect. tfs
