For this week's CAS challenge, Denise looked to Pintrest and found a gorgeous photo with beautiful colored leaves. I just returned from a weekend in Florida and see this gallery filled with beautiful leaves!!!
I decided to go a bit more abstract. I drew the rectangle first, then drew in some leaves in the same general area as the leaves in the photo. Although I kept mine to the outside edges and smaller. Then I added lots of circles to represent the water drops. I colored the leaves with Copic markers and added my sentiment. Lastly, I added the black frame. Thanks for taking a peek!

You're so amazing, Kathleen. I think having kids so young and so many of them, that my brain no longer can draw LOL. Thank heaven for STAMPS! Wondrous work - I esp love all the circles of water drops - fabulous!!!!

What a beautiful piece of artistic work you created! Such a fabulous interpretation of the CAS challenge. I love those vibrant colors against the white and really love the "water drops".
