The AAA Cards Challenge 2nd Big Birthday Bash is still going on until June 4th. If you haven't joined in the fun and festivities, you should go on over. One of the ways to win, is to do the blog hop, comment on each DT blog, and answer the question they pose. As an AAA DT Member, my question asks what your favorite craft purchase this year has been. Well, that question surely did end up costing me some money!!!!! LOL. It seems that the top 2 answers are: the MISTI (I have one - it's the bomb), and ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Pens. After reading so many rave reviews of these water color pens, I had to have them. And of course, I needed many other things to go along with them (wink). So here is my first go with my new ZIG watercolor pens and my new SSS Look For The Miracles stamp set. The pens are indeed AMAZING. I'm in love. I hope my Brushos don't get jealous. I will surely get back to them!
I was inspired by the following Challenges:
Time Out Challenge #57 is their 'Inspired by Words' challenge now and our words are:
'May All your weeds be wild flowers'
You can use any of these words to inspire you or perhaps the whole phrase. You might want to go with flowers, wild, weeds or perhaps use the whole phrase looking at how the hard times don't get in the way of the beauty in your life.
I love the sentiment on my card, and it speaks to the fact that even the hardest of times contain gifts.

I bought both MiISTI and a set of 12 ZIGs this spring... And although that means I've been overspending I love both of those purchases! Thanks for the fun blog hop, I really enjoyed making it the other day. This card is very pretty, all the vivid colours and the doodle style flowers give a smile on my face! Thanks for taking TIME OUT and joining our challenge!
Love this card with the sentiment and the layered flowers! Beautiful choice of colours, too! Thank you so much for joining us at CWS Challenge this month! Hope to see you again.

Hmm, looks like I need to investigate those ZIG pens - fabulous density of colour. Great shout out for AAA Cards Birthday Bash too. :)
My two fave purchases too, Stephanie! This is gorgeous ... bold, bright, saturated blooms ... and such a fantastic stripty sentiment! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Anita :)
Wow, Stephanie! Those blooms just pop off the card with their rich colors. Love the font of that large sentiment too. Thank you for playing along with Creative With Stamps~CAS Challenge this month :)
I love it - this is my favorite for our Challenge at Creative with Stamps this month - thanks to share this beauty with us! :)
Greetings, Eunice (DT)
Your card is so vibrant and gorgeous. Looks like you are jumping right in with those bold Zigs. I finally jumped on the Misti bandwagon earlier this year, and cannot live without it now. I just received the giant one, and am so excited to see what else I can do now.

I'm so jealous you have a Misti, they seem like an amazing tool. I do have some Ziggies, aren't they fantastic??!! You certainly coloured your flowers beautifully with them, they really pop and love that black swirly sentiment. My favourite purchase this year is a water brush. Its a small purchase but why did it take me so long to get one, its fantastic!! So very happy you joined us at TIME OUT and if off to do the rest of the AAA blog hop too!
Such a beautiful card! The colors are so rich and bright. Absolutely love those big doodle flowers and bold sentiment together. Thank you for sharing your card at ATCAS!
Those are two purchases that were worth the price! Your card is stunning!
I just spotted your card in the Time Out gallery - it is so great to see you there :) Love the way you used this card kit - and the Zig colouring is gorgeous! My kit arrived a week ago and is still sitting unboxed.... you've inspired me! Hugs! Jill
Beautiful coloring and great layout. I love the bold sentiment with those gorgeous bold colors. Fabulous card. So glad you joined us at ATCAS this week
