Icad 2015 - Week 2

During this second week of icad there were some interesting prompts.  The week prompt was paint - watercolour - and I appreciated practising more with my watercolours.
The first day was grapefruit and cherries…..so I did my best to draw the two together.

#9 was carrots and lemons.  I think my lemons look a bit like potatoes.  I washed the "index" card with green, orange and yellow.

I ended up going to a seed catalogue to get some pictures of eggplants for this card - I did my best to colour the background of the card ginger.  I used Stampin'Up!'s "Elegant Eggplant watercolour wonder crayons to outline my pictures of the eggplants.

Lime and Mango made me think of sorbet done in watercolour.

I don't like everything I create but I do love this little kiwi.  The prompt was kiwi and parsnips.  To be honest - I HATE parsnips.  The only way I can eat them is when my Grandma would make parsnip fritters, and then I had to to lather them in butter.  But this little kiwi likes them just like they are.

#13 was plums and blueberries.  I used Stampin'Up!'s Perfect Plum- I covered it with dark blueberry circles and doodled with a white sharpie.

Salt and Pepper was the final prompt of the week.  I drew the shakers on a grey background colosuring in each bottle with an appropriate colour - then I splattered the card with black and white.

That's it for index cards for a week - 
Cretate every day.
