It’s been awhile since I’ve done something mostly watercolor, without stamps or embossing, etc. So, why not a watercolor garden!  I started by sketching, then watercoloring the flower doodles.  Then I outlined the flowers with a Sharpie, painted the background, then added details/marks with a sharpie, a black gel pen, and a white gel pen.  I also used some Distress Crayons to add shadows to the flowers, and edge the journal pages.

The quote is from Audrey Hepburn (go figure…).  I printed it on my inkjet using (font called My Underwood).
