Watercolor Pencils - Love them!!!

I actually used the March stamp of the month for these Easter cards. The reason I decided to share them with you all now, was because I wanted to tell you about my experience using "watercolor pencils". I have always been very intimidated about purchasing such detailed stamp sets. I just thought it would be too difficult and time consuming to color them in. Let me just tell you how much FUN it was using the watercolor pencils! I loved it and I actually used my blending pen and it worked perfect! So bring on the detailed stamp sets, intimidation DEFEATED!!!
