Hello...
I hope your week is going well... We've got unusually warm and sunny weather today and it's very welcome...
My favourite challenge blog is celebrating their 2nd Birthday today
May they continue to challenge us for a long time to come
This month's challenge is a colour challenge
The glorious colours of Autumn... Here's what I came up with
I started by stamping the image on white cardstock with black Versafine and then clear embossed it. Then I loosely painted the 3 colours over and around the image using Gansai Tambi watercolour paint
Once dry, I die cut the leaf sprig both from the painted piece and a few times from scrap CS and glued them together before smooshing over with Versamark and clear embossing powder. It's quite hard to see the contrast of the glossy leaf against the BG.
I popped the leaf stem back into the negative space using foam dots after stamping and embossing the
sentiment (from a Uniko set) and that's it.
I hope you enjoy your day, thanks so much for your visit
Till soon

Oh my gosh Ros...this is FABULOUS!! LOVE what you did with the die cut and your water coloring is just beautiful!! Lovely, lovely card my friend! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at CAS Watercolour!! :0)
Beautiful Ros, love the autumn colours and hidden die cut so perfect for your stamp. Wonderfully CAS :)
What a stunning effect, fabulous water colouring and the colour mix is amazing. The dimension from the die cut leaves looks terrific along with the little bit of shine x One very special card x. Wet and wild in Scotland these past couple of days x.
Love these colours and the popped up leaf looks great.
I love these wintry branches and birds and using the lush Gansai Tambi paints in those gorgeous colours Ros, and finished beautifully with the wonderful gold embossed sentiment. x
Gorgeous card Ros. I always love your artistic and unique designs. This beauty is no exception. Beautiful branches with the watercoloured background. Die-cutting the leaf sprig and popping it up is amazing and unexpected. So cool! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour! xx
Absolutely GORGEOUS Ros!
Ohhh, the colors, the stamp, the glossy leaf! Your keen eye for design always WOWs me, Ros!
Oh, wow! So lovely, Ros! Gorgeous color and such a dreamy scene with the branches and birds! Awesome leaf with the fab dimension! And, perfect sentiment to go along with the dreamy scene! Well done, Ros...love it!!
Beautiful Fall watercolored background over your stamped and heat embossed branches. Love your added die cut, watercolored inlaid leaves. So much Fall beauty and dimension to your gorgeous CAS design. TFS, my friend. Hugs...

oh oh oh oh, this is stunning Ros, I just love everything about, wonderful card
This is amazing Ros!!!!!
Oooo I love this! Your colors are so vibrant. Not muddy at all like mine tend to be. Die-cutting the leaf and popping it up was a fantastic idea. It looks sooo cool.!
Wow, this is gorgeous, Ros! Your loose watercoloring is so artsy and the camouflage effect of the glossy die-cut leaf sprig adds so much interest! The flow from the bottom-left corner to the upper right-corner is a fantastic design element! I love it!

Your background is amazing, Roz! I love how you've die cut the leaves from it and stacked them for added dimension! A beautiful fall card! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Watercolour!
What a beautiful card! I love how you did your background watercoloring, so pretty and fall looking for sure. I also love the scene you stamped and then I love the artist look of the leaves die cut out of the scene. Very cool! Thanks for playing in the Oct. challenge over at CAS Watercolour! Hugs, Brenda
This is just stunning, Ros! Perfect stamp to utilize with your gorgeous watercoloring!
Oh goodness, it's been such a long time since I visited... What a lovely card - this is the time for fall colors and I'm so glad the weather is finally somewhat what it should be like at this time of year!
