This week's Teaparty is where we get to 'tickle' each other. Jeannie has organised a terrific challenge called Dipsy Doodle - to combine watercolouring and doodling.
Well, I have discovered I am really no good at doodling!! So this is my quite lame attempt - after trying many times to do better - for this challenge! I have got a watercoloured bg and I have doodled, using a Coastal Cabana marker pen, a border around the edge. As I said, quite lame!!!
I totally admire those of you who doodle so very well & have decided I must practice doodling. I can remember, years ago when on the phone (land line) I would doodle whilst listening but where those skills have gone I do not know, ha!
Anyway, I hope the recipient will still enjoy this card. TFL!

We need to talk Susie Q, your definition of lame is my definition of fun and arty! Any teapotter would love to receive this, I'm sending a bribe to Sabrina as I type.

Sue, this is so stunning! I adore the colors you achieved in your gorgeous w/c background and the doodling is perfect. This all showcases your gorgeous aqua rose so beautifully. I have a feeling there is a line forming for this beauty! ~Karen.

Of course anybody will be delighted with this beautiful floral, Sue. It's certainly hard to try things outside our comfort zone, but it's good to stretch and grow. Doodling in a challenge title still alarms me! Love the flow of colours in your watercolour layer.
