Hosted by: Linda (Holstein) this week. THANK YOU LINDA for a FABULOUS Challenge!!! SO MUCH FUN!
I decided to go outside & look around for the leaves I painted & my SWEET hubby looked for the acorns & little pine cones for me. What a SWEETIE! ;)<3
I laid them out in the arrangement you can see with my card & sketched them out & then painted them. I did splatter them when done with Gold WC (& edged the card too,) & a bit of Blk. Gouche. I did MOST EVERYTHING with Water Colors ONLY. The ONLY Colored Pencil added was to outline things for the most part, except for the acorn top in the top left hand corner. It needed a light touch for the texture of the top.
HOPE YOU LIKE!!! ;)<3
Continued Supplies List:
FC- Blk. Colored Pencil, T-Gal Sharpener.

Oh my stars, what a beauty you have created, Becky. The colors are stunning. Yes, a frame and easel would be the perfect place for this beauty. Thanks for joining in the challenge this week.
