Mary's color challenge this week is fun and cheery! I started by doing the no line stamping. Using melon mambo and stamped off once before stamping the flower. Watercolored using the ink pad. Added leaves with wild wasabi. Next I scored lines to make stripes. Using grey slate and black soot, water colored between the score lines to make the stripes. tfl

This Last Summer flower is just beautiful! You will keep me encouraged to keep practicing my watercolor with beautiful examples like this for inspiration.
