I started by making stencils with the Leaflet Framelit Dies.
Next I used sponge daubers to add ink in a few colors. I used Tangelo Twist, Delightful Dijon, Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler. I used watercolor paper.
Here is is with the sponging.
Next I used my Aqua Painter to go over the sponged areas. With the yellows and oranges I went pretty quickly but on the red and green leaves you have to go color by color or you will get a yucky brown mess. I first did the green, then cleaned the brush and did the red, then just lightly blended the middle where they met.
Here is the finished piece. So pretty!!
I made a few with just maple leaves, as those are my favorites, and a few with tight arrangements and loose arrangements.
I then added some of the stamped images from the Lighthearted Leaves in Basic Black.

I did one version with the Lighthearted Leaves stamp set and the other with the Vintage leaves stamp set. I can't decide which I like better. You?
I let the watercolor show more on these two.


I made a watercolor tag that I think turned out really fun.

This sentiment tag was made from the stamp set that came with this months My Paper Pumpkin.
Well, thanks for stopping by! I hope you get a chance to get outside this week and check out some pretty fall colors!
