Did anyone else watch what Anna Griffin did on HSN?
 

She did this really cool thing with her water color markers. It was so simple yet i never would have thought to do it, LOL

She literally took her water color markers and dipped the brush tips into WATER to soften the color!

DOH! how come i never thought you could do that??????

i do wonder though, how it will eventually affect the ink inside the barrell?

any one tried this???

heres a link to HSN, they still have the video up for it

Anna Griffin® Dual-Tipped Watercolor Markers - 12-pack at HSN.com at HSN.com

Does any one know if Michaels sells her stuff? id like to try her markers, but i am thinking i could use a coupon if Ms carries them and save a little moolah, ;)

I've seen videos with Tim Holtz's Distress Markers where he picks up water he sprayed on the table with the tip of the marker to soften the colors. I don't see why you couldn't just dip them quickly in a small container of water.

I used to see some Anna Griffin things at Michaels from time to time, but not ever very much. Then when they put in the whole Martha Stewart section, I haven't seen Anna Griffin there at all.

I think she mainly sells at smaller retail papercraft stores and on HSN several times a year.
