Polly gave us a challenge to use bubble wrap on our card someway. I took and painted it with watercolors to make a border. My flowers are taking most of my crafting time this summer. We are extremely dry and all I do is water. Most of my flowers are perennials. I wait a whole year for them to bloom and then many only last a week or two. My goal is to take them and do a painting of them. My first project is the lupines. They are stunning in the purples, pinks, corals and I have this two-toned one that is my reference for the painting. This will be scanned so there will be a copy to make cards with the painted image.

This is stunning! That's a great idea to paint them as them bloom. I know what you mean about having to water a lot....me, too. Enjoy your beautiful garden.
