So, the watercolor Wednesday a few weeks ago was to do some wet on wet and the video I watched was free hand leaves. So, I tried that. ( way way out of my comfort zone) and one thing I did was I also played with a #10 round brush. I think because, I tend to use pencils the most and I am using sharp tips so, I have been all this time water coloring with my smallest brushes. yeah, so watching that video the brush caught my attention and I decided to try this with a bigger one. and this is like leaf #abunch ( see mug shot here on the blog) and then I set all these aside.
This morning I had seen that Debby is the featured stamper this week, when I grow up I'd like to be able to watercolor awesome leaves like Debby so, I picked this gorgeous card to case and then picked this freehand leaf and diecut it with a Simon stitched die and popped up the sentiment on foam. Changes from Debby's card are I flipped mine to landscape, and stitched framed the edges instead of tearing. I also did not heat emboss anything or add any pencils for shadows to this. its really just watercolor and one tiny sentiment stamp. Debby, I hope you like this and enjoy your week! Thanks for these challenges ladies, & tfl.

Beautiful card and great freehand leaf. Yes, I use all kinds of brushes, big, little, flat, round, etc. But, you did good with your little brush.

I really LOVE your beautiful leaf! I am trying to do some of the WC challenges so I will have to take this one on soon. Hang in there with all of us so we can learn to WC together.
