Today’s card is simple yet elegant! It features the beautiful Tilly the Teacup Girl from Stamping Bella! She is done up using the watercolor with markers technique.
I love the vibrancy that this technique offers, and it is so simple and easy to do! All it takes is a little practice, and the watercolor markers of your choice.
The background papers were hand made, using various techniques with Ranger Distress Inks, and the overall feel conveyed is simple and clean.
All of these fantastic techniques are featured in the Paper Crafter’s Library. In no time at all, you can be coloring with gorgeous results, from our easy to follow technique video’s. Not a member of Paper Crafter’s Library? Read on for details on how you can win a free 2-week membership.

I just have to say thank you to you both for the wonderful tutorials. I am trying to expand myself and learn new techniques. Watercolouring is the one I am practising at the moment. Not happy with myself yet, but you keep inspiring me. Thank you again.
I am a tea drinker so I am always looking for different tea ideas.
What beautiful colors in this card! I really love the tea cup!
Boy I am getting lost trying to keep up with you gals. Really like the effects with the watercolors.
I will have to mark this spot to keep updated.
Thanks for the great ideas.

Who Is This Steve Iser Guy?
Lately there’s been a lot of talk about this relatively unknown 24 year-old online millionaire named Steve Iser who’s exposing his software program Commission Crusher, to the world for a very limited time…
So just who is Steve and what should you know about him?
Simply put, Steve is unlike any other marketer online. With nearly 5 years of marketing online, Steve has gone from College dropout at 20 to millionaire status in less than 3 years.
He’s run the full gamut from promoting affiliate programs, creating info products, software training, sold websites, spoken at marketing conferences, created his own CPA offers and in the process of his career has already helped thousands of people create successful businesses online.
You name it – he’s probably done it. This young turk believes in “paying it forward”. In other wards, his goal with Commission Crusher is to help his 500 new students utilize his new software to create a new group of rich.
His new software program, Commission Crusher, utilizes a simple method that allows you to tap into any market or niche online and find out WHO exactly has the traffic – so you can tap into it and get a piece of the pie for youself.
Needless to say, he’s unlike most of these other “gurus” out there. He does things differently. And he takes a personal interest in helping his customers succeed.
If you want to know more about Commission Crusher and what Steve’s got going on right now, check it out below:
