    G'day Julia, I am loving your watercolour journey from the beginning, as you start to explore all the fun techniques. 🎨 The second book that you popped on screen by Harriet De Winton looks very impressive and detailed in painting watercolour florals and foliage. I must confess that I absolutely love the wet-on-wet technique and use it often. The whimsical dancing tulips that I sent you were wet-on-wet. I am always mesmerised as the colours spread within the wet area. I have noticed when painting with watercolour that it is fine to leave white spaces, and I love the idea that it doesn't need to be perfect. Like you I use the Pigma Micron black pen, and the Pilot Hi-Tec-C in black as well. Both work brilliantly when adding doodles into your watercolours. Well done Julia for what you have achieved, and I am sure you will be encouraging a lot of lovely people out there to trying watercolours for themselves. After all we all must start from the beginning. God's blessings, love and hugs from your Aussie friend! 🌸🩷🌺

Love and Hugs back across the world to you with God's Blessings!

    Wet on wet is great LOL I need to practice more with it. I like the tube paints better than the dry pan water colors. Even if the leftovers on the palette dries, just add water to rejuvenate the tube paint. It’s probably all in what you get use to. Maybe I will get motivated to try watercolors again with these wonderful videos. Thank you for doing these.

    Hey there Julia, you can imagine my delight when I found this video this morning. I am going to enjoy watching as you discover the joys of watercolour painting, and I am looking forward to YOUR journey. It is extremely helpful watching videos on water colouring, and there is a plethora of videos on YT at different levels of painting skills to guide you. I must say my favourite colours are sap green and permanent rose... they are gorgeous and are my favourites when I paint florals. You know how much I love the colour pink. 🩷 If I may make a suggestion, please... apply a good squirt of each colour onto your paint palette and allow it to dry completely before you use it. I find that if you use paint straight from the tube you are more likely to use more paint. Once the paints are dry spritz them with plenty of water, and then allow the brush to soak up all that gorgeous pigment. Julia, do you have any of your mother's artwork? It must be very special for you to use her brushes, and in a way by using them, a part of her is with you. 🩷 Enjoy the process, but more importantly... have fun! God's blessings, love and hugs. 🥰🎨🌺🩷

      Trust me I didn't start out managing my scraps this way. I kept them in a drawer, and then I kept them by color. Nothing worked, until I started keeping the scraps with the parent paper. And I made it a firm studio rule not to cut a sheet until I had gone through all the scraps first. You'd be surprised at how few sheets I have cut into in the last 2 years since really changing my focus to scraps first.

    I bought the glue upon your suggestion and I love it. It gives me more time to place my elements and does not warp the paper. It is my new favorite. For sure, will be there on Wednesday! 😊

    Congratulations on the new house!! So happy to hear that this is all coming together finally!! Your cards were all beautiful! It’s hard to pick a favorite but I do really like the one from today! On the one that you said was probably going into the bin, could you take a blending marker or a color lifter marker to the green swipes (I’m guessing that’s the part you didn’t like)? I don’t know what kind of markers you used but if they are alcohol markers you could try to lighten the green with either a blender or color lifter or maybe even a atop with a little alcohol on it - very little alcohol. You could also try going over them with a lighter green as sometimes lighter colors will lighten up darker colors if they are alcohol based.

      Thanks Maureen - I thought about trying to lift some of the marker back off, but ya know - it's only paper and it's OK to toss a card once in a while. But (LOL) it's still in the card rack - HA!!

    Julia you always come up with some great background ideas. It looks like extreme closeup of ,Christmas lights looking through a window that has rain coming down outside.

    When you pulled off that tape, the card just popped and came to life. I love it. Thank you for sharing your technique.

    G'day Julia, I have kept you in my prayers these past months as you transition into your hopefully forever home. 🩷 I absolutely love these cards, and your colour choice is stunning. You are right in adding some gold splatters as it would lift the cards to the next level. I was surprised at how the brown ink blended in the corners only made such a difference, but subtly. I just love what you come up with, and as I no doubt have said before you are a very talented lady. I am looking forward to 'Susie's Watercolour Wednesday' tutorials, and hopefully you will inspire me to return to my watercolour paints again. I stopped cardmaking and painting over winter and snuggled under a rug reading books. As it is now getting warmer (Spring here in Australia) that I no longer have a valid excuse to stay out of my craft studio. I am looking forward to painting along with you. 🎨 Take care my friend. God's blessings, love and hugs. 🥰🌷🩷🎨

      Hey Gloria! This bunch of colours has such a nice blend, and you are right the brown is key to toning it down subtly. I hope you won't be disappointed in Wednesdays you are such a marvelous watercolour artist! But thank you for your support of my journey. I am enjoying the beginning chapter! God's blessings, love and hugs.

      I know - it's such a relief not to be facing another year of building and then all the yardwork that goes with new construction. Glad you liked this card!!
