Last week I told you that I bought a set of Winsor & Newton watercolors. I didn't have much time to really try them out, but I did play around a little bit and this is my contribution to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date this week.
I made four watercolor backgrounds with a wet on wet technique that I learned in one of those free online classes and then stamped an image over it.
The color combination for this card was inspired by Toni Burt's taster lesson for LifeBook 2023. The stamp is by Stampington & Company.
This Da Vinci woman is another favorite stamp - this one is by Rubber Baby from 1991. I actually dabbed away most of the color after I had put it on the paper. I love the subtle look. This is for Nicole's Friday Face Off.
I love everything ocean, so there had to be a lighthouse in the mix. The stamp is by Stampendous (1989).
When I came to the US I heard for the first time of Italian sausage. I had never seen that in Italy. Over time is has become a popular item for our dinners - I love the fennel flavor. Last week I made crumbled up sweet Italian sausage with zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes (all from my garden), garlic and Italian herbs (I used the Penzey's mix "Tuscan Sunset") and a little bit of cream. It was good.
