dilemma:
i found myself in a bit of a bind because my waterbrush,
that was fully loaded with permanent-yellow-deep watercolor, was accidentally dropped.
and on it's way down towards my nice clean journal page, it took
a nose-dive and did two full somersaults......
{and after a few choice words, i tried to remember that
"put on a happy face" song we used to sing in school.}
solution:
big yellow accidental splotches always make good sunshines!
happy weekend to you!
{supplies: pocket watercolor moleskine, koi watercolor,
acrobatic waterbrush, pitt pens, 4B pencil}
Fun happy accident! Love it!
ReplyDeleteLori, They sure do!!!! Every page you do is amazing, I'd say it was a happy accident ;) Sending sunshiney hugs back to you and wishes for a fab-o weekend, LV style! xoox, Jeanette

ReplyDeletei love what you did with your yellow splash of color.
ReplyDeletethank you for your kind wishes for this weekend.
lovely days to you~
OK, so my question is... did you load the barrel up with the ink? I LOVE THAT IDEA! My brain is spinning with possible applications of that... I just bought extra parallel pens for that some purpose, to have different ones loaded with distress ink. :-) Now THAT can be an expensive thing, but I LOVE PARALLEL PENS!
ReplyDeleteNo limits to your fantasy!!
ReplyDelete...and yellow is my favourite colour.
I love your capricious brush!
It's raining here: your yellow smile makes bright my scraproom.
A big hug Lori.
Have a wonderful weekend.
xoxoxo Eulalia
