what it looks like still on Wed am. I really should clean up when I get home today but, Tuesday was a record setting heat day here and today will be more of the same. So, while the mind is willing the body melts. I will say however I am not feeling the heat as badly as when the metal siding was on the back side of the garage so, it is getting better but, we've been distracted by the dragging hoses around to water daily & watching the clock. 

we have zero irrigation water this year from snow pack run offs that would normally be stored in the lake for irrigation purposes. there was just not enough of it added to the previously dry years the ground soaked up a whole bunch of what has dropped this year so, the in ground sprinklers we have here are on 2" lines for using an irrigation pump to push it and there is not enough pressure with you know your household city line to use those sprinklers so. we are dragging hoses. and giving things just minimal amounts of water. 

So monday I had some free time in the afternoon and tried to follow along with last week's watercolor challenge/tutorial ( link goes to SCS where an youtube video is embedded) and I tried the sketching the tulips first and painting them and really that did not go well at all. one has not hit the bin yet and is seen off to the right on the other Misti. So, I finally dug out this old Club Scrap stamp and painted it instead. the stamp has splatters so, I add libbed a few more.

Used those Mungyo paints and the sentiment is from My Favorite Things. The tiny photocorners are die cuts from an old green original Sizzix die. On my desk you can see one of those Misti's has the tulips in it and the other has the sentiment. I really am going to go pick things up now and will peek in later. Thanks for stopping by & stay safe out there.
