This student painted the sky on hers and asked me to take a picture of the leaf against the sky to see the camouflage effect! We used the crayola 16 color box which is my absolute fav right now! We tried it with…

Natalie on Instagram: "Hi, it’s me, that crazy lady picking up pretty leaves on all her walks. 👋 As requested, here’s an autumn version of the watercolor leaf prints video I made back in the summer, with more details. If you’ve tried this before without success, keep these things in mind: 🍁 Use heavy watercolor paper that can stand up to a lot of water 🍁 Your paper must be saturated with paint and water before placing your leaves for this to work.
