hi there,
Here is my card for the CAS Challenge today; Falling into Fall.
I masked the outside edge of my card then placed my leaf stamp inside my MISTI. I inked it up with Antique Linen Distress stain, sprayed with water and stamped. I moved the stamp over just slightly, inked with Peeled Paint green Distress stain and stamped again over the top of the first image. I then pulled the color into my bkg.
Thanks for looking,

This leaf looks like the wet leaves we get in the fall. Ours do not stay the vibrant colors for long. Your artistic way of meeting this challenge is great!

This is a real WOW! Luv the watercolor and your leaf is fabulous.
BTW, thanks, I actually am feeling a little better today. Started the 4th, so here I am at 16 days and I can finally stand for about 15 minutes before I have to sit down.
