Step 1: Select several fall shades from the Spectrum Aqua range of markers and several leaf images from the stamp set. I selected 2 shades of markers per leaf.
Step 2: For the first leaf, I used Marigold and Chestnut markers. Start with the lighter Marigold and using the brush tip, add color to the entire leaf.
Step 3: Add Chestnut to the outer edges and the stem of the leaf.
Step 4: Lightly spritz some water from a spray bottle on the leaf. NOTE: Don't over spray - once is fine. If you over spray, the stamped image won't stamped a defined image.
Step 5: Stamp the image on Spectrum Noir Watercolor Paper.
Step 6: Trim the stamped image with scissors.
Step 8: Add Gold around the edges and down the middle of the leaf.
Step 9: Spritz with one spray of water and stamp on watercolor paper.
Step 10: For the third leaf, color the entire leaf with the Scarlet marker.
Step 11: Add Terracotta marker around the edges and down the middle.
Step 12: Spritz the stamp with water, stamp and trim with scissors.
Here is a close up of all 3 leaves... aren't they pretty?
Now lets HOP! And don't forget to leave some love along the way because, as always, there will be some fabulous prizes!
