ID: Apr/20 Iris - Being Still And Silent" card
size: 5"w x 7"H 

Created: April 15, 2020

As mentioned before I wanted to do more water coloring this year and asked my friends what their favorite flower and color were... and that's my inspiration for the flower cards coming. BIG GRIN.

 

 

    

Drew the Irises onto CP watercolor paper using a black Micron pen.

I used Daniel Smith water colors (see image below for pic of my  palettes) to paint my flowers.

Wrote my text using a Zebra G nib with pink "Purple Lake" FW acrylic ink in a monoline lettering.

Trimmed down and adhered to a purple cardstock then onto my white cardstock card.

 

 

On the inside:

Wrote out the words with the 6.0 and 2.4 Parallel pen and Sumi ink.

I bought these containers thinking to use them for my Daniel Smith water colors... I have a ton of them and all my other palettes were too limiting. These have little individual containers that have a magnetic strip to hold them in the container. As you can see there are 40 containers for each palette and I still have more to come... I ordered a set of 2 more which should be here in a week or so and I can get the rest of my browns/neutrals, duochromas and iridescents. I'll be so happy. I'm loving using these already. The lid makes a good mixing surface too although I usually use my colors straight. I made a sampler of each color, including a number both on the sampler and the little containers in case they spill out.
