Gelatos and Watercolors play

"Twas a lovely Saturday night for playing around;

the rain was coming down and DH had

the TV blaring, so I put in my earbuds, turned on Pandora

tuning into the Blues and decided to grab a nice glass of wine

(which could explain alot).

I broke out the gelatos and some leftover special papers I had

and went to town.

I didn't record the drawing of the lines, nor having to figure out

how much water and what brush to use because you probably know more

than I do at this point and it would've interrupted the 

creative process (snort).

Actually I didn't think of doing an actual blog post

of my adventures until way later.

 The above result come out pretty good.

But did I stop there?

Noooooo.....

Where's the fun in that.

 For some reason I decided that I wanted to make squares

and of course used the black gelato. :|

I should've really thought that through a bit more.

 Since that went so well

 I decided to break out the watercolors and play around.

Seriously, how bad can that work out.

 And the watercolors didn't turn out that bad.

In my head I was working my way toward doing "printables" but

not on the computer - because PSE and LR baffle me and I

wasn't quite sure of Word so......and I really wanted to get messy

and use my stuff so........

I decided to go live.

Being quite the multi-tasker I took another look at the gelato paper 

while the watercolors were drying. I wanted

to see if I could salvage anything and decided to smear

more gelato and water about to see if I could make 

it any better because seriously could it really get any worse.

I mean what are the odds of that.

 Setting the gelato paper aside 

the watercolor paper dried quite nicely and

I just whacked them up with scissors.

And then tried to figure out what I was going to do.

Since I can't draw a stick figure I decided that stamps were

the way to go.

(I experienced a moment of panic when I couldn't find my

favorite sets, as I had moved them to a different

container for the crop a few weeks ago).

However, after bugging a few people I figured out what happend

and got back to work.

The odds were 

Four out of seven- not bad.

I tried writing on one of squares- however, when under pressure

to write really cool - I caved....

therefore a blob of white paint took care of that.

I have no idea what happened to the brown one - oh yeah

the bycicle stamp I used - inside out/turned the wrong way

on the block so you can imagine my surprise when I 

saw it was a bigblackblob on the paper - 

and there was noooooo fixin' that one either.

And the houses just looked plain dumb and I had no idea 

where to go with that in that moment so

 I just set them aside to see that once dry, and if in the

light of day and the lack of wine and blues, 

they may or may not be salvageable.

I know you're on the edge of your seat in anticipation of 

where these are gonna go, so............

I'll keep you posted.
