LOVE the colors from the today's CAS challenge and had to play along.
I used the watercolor spritz technique (it probably has a different name, but that's what I call it)
This is a 2-step stamp. I inked the solid stamp randomly with three shades of blue ink (used markers), spritzed with water and then stamped onto watercolor paper. Once dry, I did the same for the outline stamp, using only the darkest blue this time.
Fussy-cut the leaves and popped them up on a cork panel. Easy and fun. It's great that we can take creative license and make things whatever color we like ... am loving blue leaves

What wonderful, fun blue leaves on cork! I'm intrigued not only that you stamped it with water but did a second stamping precisely on your first! Gorgeous card, Loll!

If there are red oaks I don't see why there can't be blue oaks! Your leaves are gorgeous against the cork (which IS an oak I believe). Lovely card. TFS
