1st Post of 2014....It's The Berries

Water Color Pencils

On a previous post, I wrote about my Christmas dessert.  A friend asked me for the recipe, so while I was home yesterday....rather than just typing it in an email...I decided to take a piece of watercolor paper and jazz it up a bit.  My first attempt at this....I wrote the recipe with a black pen.  I just haven't found a pen that really writes well over paint so I redid the whole thing and this time typed it out and added it to the page.  I've got to find a good black pen....
If you were to take a dozen of your favorite recipes and create a little art around them....it could make a sweet little book.

Love your blog and art! Found your site from the Gelli Arts page and saw your comment about a pen. Though I have not tried these pens, Christy Tomlinson is a well know mixed media artist and she vouches for and even sell these pens. Just thought I would share the info with you...I am in no way affiliated with her or get any compensation! Just thought I would share and you also might can find these pens at Office Supply stores! thanks for sharing your art and thoughts! LOVED your gelli print of HOME!{Scarlet Lime Permaball Pilot Pen: Black}
