Polly in Purple (and my distress ink efforts)

Well now...who's this sassy gal?  Her name is Polly and you can get her here at Deb's Creations! Deb had her sent to me and she was so fun to color.  And yes, I've finally shared something colored with my new medium: Ranger Distress Inks! I bought the 23 older colors (left out the clear embossing one).  I know that I'll never really abandon my Copics (partly because I've spent waaaay too much on the ones I have), but I love the effects that I get with watercolors. I also love that they're so much cheaper and I must admit, it's a little more fun watercoloring than marker coloring. I want to get the new Ranker Distress Ink colors, but I'm waiting till they go on sale because I'm cheap like that.  Oh, and I really want some Twinkling H2O pots, too!  Ah, this addiction is horrible.

Well, I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend! Make sure to pop back in tomorrow for my blog hop post for the new Whimsy Stamps release!
