Imagine just that - you are going to decorate your canvas anyway you want. I started with a scrap of watercolor paper, my aquapainter and three ink pads - Real Red, Green Galore, and Marigold Morning and working from memory here is my finished still life.
I usually go for the pink poinsettia when I buy one, but HWNSNBP chose a red one for us this year (another one of his deals at $.99!). Although this flower was colored with Real Red ink I didn't lay on the color so I could have my pink poinsettia anyway.
This was a fun challenge this week and if it weren't the week before Christmas I would probably find this very relaxing.
Gotta run and get some more cards done - anyone out there ready for the holidays? I wish I could say I was!
I said in my comment that I thought the red ones were brash - I don't think I've seen pink here, just white or red. I'd go for pink too :D.
ReplyDeleteI had a lovely card from Barbara - thank her for me, I wasn't expecting a reply and really appreciated it. She mentioned she was doing easy piano songs as rehab; I'll try to make a card using my Penny Black mice on the piano over the holidays for her.
