Watercolored leaves

Hello. Here is my take on this weeks Freshly Made Sketch.

The leaf stamps are from Technique Tuesday and stamped onto water color paper. I used my new Zig Kuretake real brush markers to watercolor and then fussy cut them out.

Mesh ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl via the UK.  I actually added this on afterwards because it looked so plain otherwise. Like the texture it adds.

Birthday Wishes vertical sentiment is from Gina K Designs and the wood dots are from My Minds Eye.

This is going to go into my masculine birthday card stash. I really like how it turned out. Thanks for stopping by.

    Love the textured mesh ribbon- really added just that special something. I want those markers too :( but I just got the whole Crazy Birds stuff.

    I love how the mesh ribbon sets off the vertical layer of leaves from the rest of the card. And the vertical sentiment is fabulous! I wish there were more of those around! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches!

    Beautiful colours on the leaves, and that mesh ribbon is an unexpected treat! (haven't seen it before).
