Stephanie is back as Guest Hostess this week and found an Etsy shop called "{more} sprinkled joy" to inspire us. I chose this GROUP OF STRAWS with their autumn colors for my watercolor of fall flora. Again, I used reinkers and an aqua brush...and a larger flat brush for the bg. A quick way to do a watercolor.
Great to see you back as hostess, Stephanie.....if only for a week.

another water colored beauty Sallie-and your flowers look like the Chinese lanterns that are growing in our gardens right now- they remind me of mini pumpkins

Your card is drop dead gorgeous, Sallie - you should have your work hanging in a MUSEUM, the water coloring is that awesome!

Sallie, you work pure magic with watercolor! I'll never tire of seeing your work! You have a talent for shading and highlighting that I've never seen done with this technique before! It would truly be a privilege to watch you work!

Sorry if I haven't been getting to see and comment on your fab cards. I caught a virus last month that just won't stop. I have been feeling just awful and can't get much done.
Enjoy the wknd.
