Hello Friends, I am back with the finished “Organic Blooms” from Mama Elephant that I colored yesterday.

I was just futzing along and went a little to crazy with the dots. It’s all about being in the zone lol. The coloring zone.

    So cool! I like the dots! I have not been adventurous yet with dots or the like – baby steps! But I have been colouring every day and I’m 19/19! Woohoo! I’m really committing to it, even if it is just 5 minutes. Last challenge I only made it to 19 days out of the 30 so I’m already doing better!

    I have a question for you… I was one of the lucky winners of the Online Card Class but I’m wondering what to do next… how do I obtain the free class? I’m still super excited about it! Thanks so much! Happy colouring!

    I really like the card. In one of my groups this months swap is a red, white or blue card or a combo of all of them. This would be perfect! Can I borrow your card? LOL I love the dots and I know what you mean about getting in the zone. I’ve been in their many times. I would have not picked the colors you did for this card but I like it.
    It’s probably hot where you are but it is so uncomfortable where I live. Today it was in the 90’s in the shade on our porch. Unless you do winter sports in CT we try to stay indoors as much as possible to keep warm. The only time to go outside and color or jump rope or blow bubbles or work in my veggie garden is in the spring and summer. Nobody is going outside unless they absolutely have to this week and last week. We are having a horrible heat wave where it’s in the 90’s but it feels like over 100 with the humidity. I don’t have a problem keeping hydrated but my parents are another story. Both of them have bathroom problems so they don’t want to drink a lot but they also can’t be dehydrated either. We also haven’t had much rain either and when it does rain, it doesn’t cool it off.
    It’s after midnight and it’s 72 but it still feels humid.
    My nephew looked in one of my coloring books and picked out a picture for me to color for the wall in his college dorm room. I’m going to put it in a lucite frame. Half of it is finished and when it is finished, I will post it. I also have to make a birthday card for my mom, my niece and my dance teacher. They all have July birthday’s. I need one more card for my red, white or blue card swap. My foot is feeling better. I can’t wait until it’s 100% better. One last thing. Crayola has a box of florescent crayons on sale this week at Staples. Have to buy some!

    That’s not too many dots. I think it’s perfect!! Very, very cool. I never think to do stuff like that.

    I need to create a file – cool things I see that never occur to me and I will forget if I don’t write down. 🙂

    The colors are fantastic.. The dots you add really give so much texture. I love this look. I need to try this for those solid boring flowers. Awesome look. You have been so helpful on different little touches which speak volume to a card and image. Thank you.
