TLC570 = dry embossing with a stencil. See Sabrina's EXCELLENT tips and tutorial HERE.
I watercolored the strawberries and leaves on watercolor paper, then cut them out and raised them on foam tape. The bg was done with the dry embossing/stencil technique.

Seeing your watercoloring is always such a treat, Sallie! You do an amazing job each and every time! Highlights and shadows always so perfect! LOVE the way you did that leaf with the hint of red! Oh my gosh it looks so real. Outstanding artwork!

As always, a great choice - both for your embossing folder to use in this dry embossing with stencils technique, AND the luscious strawberries you water colored - they look so real, and the shadow you added beneath them makes it look even more realistic!!
