Nature's Pace - Thistle

The lovely thistle image is from a stamp set called "Nature's Pace". This set has some really lovely realistic images in it and I think my favorite is the thistle.  We have thistles like this growing in our pasture and I always think they're so pretty when they're in bloom.  My husband and the horses don't agree.

Detail images like this one from Nature's Pace are ideal for coloring with markers.  Here's a few tips about INK. The ink in the Stampin'UP! markers and Classic Ink Pads is water soluble ink.  Since the green and pink colors are added to this image with markers, the image itself could NOT be stamped with our regular black ink - it would have just smeared with the marker.  Instead, the image was stamped in StazON ink which is not water soluble.
