Series: The Daily Marker Art Card #19 Yes, more Power Poppy flowers... checks... and there are two more to go before the end of the challenge. When I'm colouring flowers, I normally have a quick search to remind myself what colours they come in, but I'm now at that point where I'm picking random colour… Continue reading Peonies
The guest instructor for week three of the Wanderlust "floral" theme was Mou Saha (website, Instagram, YouTube). Me and watercolour are not really the best of friends. I can use it, but unless I'm making pretty background papers for other projects, I'm rarely completely happy with the results.

Like all Power Poppy images, this is so beautifully drawn that it's easy to get a good result. The background was more of a challenge. I could have left… Continue reading Sweet peas
I had printed out the gerbera image in preparation for a previous Daily Marker colouring challenge and it had been lurking in the pile of printed digi stamps ever since. I didn’t colour it with the intention of making a Mother’s Day card, but I was so happy with it once it was finished that… Continue reading Mother’s Day gerbera
