Hi Bonnie. LOVE your watercoloured leaves. The negative painting makes such a difference and really "lifts" the leaf sprig from the page creating lots of dimension and depth. Your black oval frame and splatters also accentuate the watercolouring and make the colours pop.
I'm so excited to be starting this new adventure with you. We are going to have a lot of FUN! :) xx
Lovely creation! Hope to play along!
Looking great Bonnie my friend! Good luck to you both in this new venture of yours! I LOVE the examples and the explanations are a great help too! Can't wait to join in! have a great month! Hazel xx

Love your mixed media card Bonnie! You and Loll make it look so easy. Can't wait to get on it to try my hand at it. Won't be near as beautiful as yours and Lolls, but I'm gonna try! lol Hugs, Brenda
Bonnie, I love the watercoloured leaves and the splatter! Perfect framing of the leaves with the dark oval to match the sentiment. I'm so glad you and Loll have got together to do this challenge, and I'm so honoured to be your first featured designer.
This initial entry for the new challenge is just FAB-ulous. Love the watercolor look of this wonderful leafy branch, and how pretty it is, nestled on the oval mats. Well done! Mz B. TFS & Hugs

Bonnie this is gorgeous - love the movement in the colours behind the leaf
