Your card is so cute, and those are the best hugs. Really like how you did the fur texture on the bears. Your unexpected colors looks fantastic. Glad you are having fun with the markers. TFS

I have heard those markers are great. This is such a sweet image and your choice of unexpected colour is perfect. We will be taking up blending in the near future, so stay tuned.

I like how it came out! Super cool extra color - kind of adds a touch of magic (like Grandpa touches). Fun card, Kelly. Hugz

I've been looking at those Altenew Watercolor markers. Looks like they have lots of pigment in the watercolor. Are they like a water brush with the watercolor in them? Your card is so sweet. I love the hugging bears. The blue may not have blended how you wanted but it looks great as a tie between the image and the framing and base.
