There is a new challenge starting up Called CAS Watercolour Challenge
and also a DT call if you are interested.
My friend Dar challenged me to do the challenge,
which I needed as I have no creative mojo right now at all!
Being CAS, it was pretty easy
as I cut a negative maple leaf
and simply used my recently purchased (and never been used 'yet')
Zig Clean Color watercolor marker set.
I used my Zigs and water on water color paper,
then simply placed the negative on top.
A sentiment was embossed with an old EB powder I had on hand
and a tiny orange hemp bow was added.
So pop on over and check out this new challenge
as it is a unique one, being that only water colors will be used!

ok YOU WIN!!! LOL
This is FABULOUS ... what a great technique ... love that idea! Did you use your die cutting machine for the leaf? I don't have any dies that large but LOVE the look!!!
Thanks for the fun ... we need to do this at least once a week (we could call it the BFF Challenge, lol)
You girls are so fun! Congratulations on winning...according to Darlene! It's a really beautiful card, Diane! :o)
This is beautiful! Love how you created the leaf.
Beautiful fall card. Love that you could use that negative and that you got to use your new water color markers.
Simply Beautiful Fall watercolored card. Love your maple leaf negative and sweet little bow. TFS
Such a beautiful Autumnal CAS card, Diane! I love the negative maple leaf and your watercolours are spot on! A gorgeous sentiment and bow finish off your card which is just perfect for our challenge.
Thanks for sharing your work at If You Give A Crafter A Cookie Challenge #54. Good luck and hope you'll join us again next time.

Your leaf is so pretty!! I just love the coloring in the opening and such a fabulous sentiment too! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave me a nice comment! :)
What a gorgeous sentiment to pair with that big ol' leaf. Perfect card for fall!
Fantastic design! Love the watercolour through your maple leaf aperture. And beautiful sentiment to match. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour.
Such a wonderful sentiment to put with your gorgeous watercolor leaf, Diane! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Watercolour!
I love your water colored leaf and especially that you used the negative....how creative! Beautiful card. Thanks for playing along with us at Just Us Girls!
Super cute!!! Thank you for joining us at If you give a Crafter a Cookie, good luck!!! Amy DT
Oh it's gorgeous!! That sounds like a fun challenge and I'm definitely going to check it out ... Thanks for the inspiration my friend!
Such a creative design Diane. At first look I didn't see the negative, I love how that is deceptive to ones eyes at first. You have to look at the edges to see if it is popped or recessed. Super sentiment too!
Yay for using your Zigs for the first time! Looks like you blended them together beautifully. The leaf cut out makes a pretty peek into the color, and I love the embossed sentiment. I've told myself I'm going to start using my embossing powders more. What happens to mojo, I wonder? Sometimes I get on a roll and then it just fizzles out. CAS is a good way to get it back, I think.
I love my Zigs! You did an incredible job with your watercoloring. The leaf is beautiful!
Great card, loving your technique. Superb sentiment too.
Thanks for joining us over at CRAFT for our Anything Picture Inspiration Challenge. Hope to see you again.
Good luck.
