You have to plant a flower if you want it to bloom

I'm not know for my ability to doodle.  You would think anyone could doodle, wouldn't you?  What I've found is that some people put marks on paper and some people DOODLE.  My friends, Jana and Denise are very talented in the Doodle department.  

My flowers are my latest doodle attempt.  I used a page from a book to give them some added texture. I   spritzed some paint on the page first and then added the doodle.  I tore around each flower instead of cutting this time.  

The grass was done by running the edge a credit card through green paint and then dragging the credit card down the journal page. This is my favorite way to make grass because it doesn't look so neat. 

This page was done for the Colors of Summer Challenge: Orange & Hot Pink.  My pink now looks purple.  Not sure what happened with that.

I added the word bloom because I'm wanting my muse to bloom.  I was away over the weekend and I don't have much of an urge to paint since I returned.  I know that the only way to get over that is to paint anyway.  This is not my favorite piece but it is my effort on a day when I would rather have taken a nap.  If your muse is not whispering in your ear today, put some paint or ink on paper anyway.  It will get the juices flowing.  Thanks for stopping by and visiting.

Purple, Aqua, Orange and Teal

                       
Amber and Lynn requested Owl Tags, also.  Aqua and purple for Amber and Orange and Teal for Lynn.  I'm disappointed that the Orange and Teal one didn't scan true to color.  This was the best I could get the scan to do.  In person or tagson the owls are a nice rich teal.  My Stampin Up owl punch has been very popular this week.  The orange tag is made from a paint sample.
