Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Rainbow Release Blog Hop Day 1!
Today I am so super excited to share this set of four embossed backgrounds cards colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. The embossed areas provide the perfect surface for coloring. The detail of these amazing new embossing folders is incredible! I finished each card with simple sentiment strips and heart accents to keep the focus on the colored embossed designs!

My favorite is the rainbow leaf bundle engagement card. I (...lol branching out- sorry listening to your video on you tube while typing) actually like the vine canopy folder better than the leaf bundle one but your coloring is just beautiful on that one.
