My flowers are in full bloom and my sweet
peas have grown to over 4 feet! My dahlias are growing, but haven’t
bloomed yet. With the heat we have been experiencing I need to make sure
I am on top of the watering. This next week we are to hit triple
digits! Summer is definitely here!
Can you believe I am still playing with watercolor techniques? I am! Today’s technique was supposed to be the ghost watercolor technique but I used too much water and the first attempt did not turn out. So…I decided to see what would happen if I were to stamp the lifted ink onto paper. I like the results!
I did finally figured out the ghost technique, but have not made the piece into a card yet. What’s up with that! LOL!!

After I stamped the image I wanted to highlight the outline of some of the petals. I used an aqua painter to draw the outline.
