I am back (a couple of days late) for the last day of Kristina Werner&#8217;s Simply watercolor class. We finish the class with flowers, which is very exciting!</p>
<p><strong>Day 5 &#8211; Florals and leaves </strong></p>
<p>The first lesson focuses on abstract looking leaves. I was a little skeptic about these abstract flowers, but I actually like the final card. It looks simple but elegant.</p>

<p>The second lesson served as a way to practice different shapes of leaves. I have to keep practicing my leaves but I like the card. I added washi tape to this card to cover up a little tearing of the paper from when I peel the masking tape back.</p>
