I created this card using the layout from Betsy Veldman's design but added different colored trees using the method of putting water color and water on stamping block and then picking it up by using the tree stamp. I also used this method for the yellow flowers. In addition, I added some gold pearlescent water color to the trees. I am not sure the photo shows the subtle color of soon to be fall.
Betsy has tutorials on her blog for seven days on how to water color and shade each element of the Hand and Hand Stamp Set. Betsy's Blog
This is my final creation (above) and I am hooked on water coloring now. The combination of water coloring and card making go hand in hand (no pun intended)
All supplies are from the Greetery, unless otherwise stated.
