Before you begin on the card, add a few drops of olive green, or desired color ink, into a small plastic zip bag. Add Taupe Color Fragments and close bag. Shake to distribute ink. Add more color for darker colored fragments. Open bag and let air dry. The color fragments will clump together if they become too wet. To separate them gently roll them between your fingers or use tweezers.
