I love the visual imagery of leaves. Whether it is spring, summer or that magical time of year when leaves are like movie stars - fall - leaves can fit in so many cards and scrapbook layouts. I am entering this card into two challenges:
My Favorite Things Camp Create 2021 Day 3 Emboss Resist Challenge, and
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge with the birthday theme. I heat embossed the leaf with clear powder and brushed on a coat of water, then did a wash of very watered down watercolor from my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. After that was dry, I went back with a paintbrush and added in the darker spots. I adore watercolor on any card.

This is so pretty, especially the pops of watercolour on the leaf - I've just had my Zigs out for the watercolour challenge. Definitely makes it a bit easier!
