Autumn Wishes with Splotchy Watercoloring


Hello and welcome!

I have a clean and simple fall card using stamps from Newton's Nook Designs and a technique I like to call "splotchy watercoloring."  To get this look you take watercolor markers (I used Zigs) and just dab the color on randomly on the leaves, no blending at all.  I chose my fall colors and used one color at a time leaving little splotches of color and then adding the next color until the leaves were full of colored spots.

It's a very fast coloring technique and takes no thought or talent whatsoever!  My kind of coloring on days when my right thumb joint is acting up!  

Hope you like my CAS autumn card!

Thanks so much for stopping by!



I will enter this in:
