The results were fascinating.Like the dried leaves picture.Artihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455186909681790185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288685972978380472.post-60782956593368458172017-04-06T20:01:28.284-04:002017-04-06T20:01:28.284-04:00Cool!

Years ago, I used fallen leaves (maple, oak, and poplar) to make impressions on a sweatshirt like a rubber stamp, except I put fabric paint on the vein side, lifting very carefully revealing a beautiful outline of the leaf. After the paint dries, I think outlined each leaf design with fabric glitter pens. I need to find that sweatshirt and take a picture of it, then share the steps to creating it for others to try. It's really a neat DIY project for anyone who enjoys crafting. <br /><br />Check out, <a href="http://curiousasacathy.com/2017/04/aprila2z-art-sketching-through-the-alphabet-e/" rel="nofollow">Art Sketching Through the Alphabet</a> with the letter "E" (elephant, eagle, elk)!
