    Hey Kelly, I just watched the video, would you mind telling me what is the make or your brush? I know you said it's a number 2 round but was curious as to the maker because it's a LONG skinny brush.

    the flowers really glow. I have the Zig pens but haven't colored with them very much.
    That will change after seeing your beautiful coloring.
    The Paper Smooches stamps are always so nice - great ideas behind them.
