This week I'm your hostess and we are going to showcase leaves and greenery. I have a video for you, but anything goes as long as you use watercolors.
Using the video I made a cheat sheet to have when I want a reference to them. I made two very cas and simple sympathy card using her method. Come and join us this week and show us your painted leaves. TFL
Here is the video

Love the scoring and the cards are perfect for sympathy cards.

FANTASTIC samples, challenge, and idea to make a "cheat sheet!"
Shoot - just when I thought I had "the plan" for my parents' 50th Anniversary card (which I planned on completing on a rare free night to myself that's supposed to happen tonight), you've given me one heck of a potential distraction with this challenge and what appears like it's a must-watch tutorial video! Bookmarked and noted - I may be circling back to this ASAP!
Thanks so much for the inspiration and beautiful samples!

Both of these sympathy cards are very soothing and so heartfelt, Linda. You've done so well with painting these leaves. I Love both cards and I always admire those who can paint a wreath and balance it out like they stamped it, but didn't. Wonderful creations~

I agree with Roberta; your wreath is very skillfully done. I love the simple green leaves against the rich textured WC paper. Beautiful font on the sentiments as well. A gorgeous pair of sympathy cards.

Both gorgeous! The watercolor/shading is fantastic. The design on the left has a contemporary feel and the one with the wreath is unique and striking. Both are heartfelt paintings that display your talent...
