woyww - leaf stamps

Really liking the new stamps from Dylusions.  I have stamped them on old book pages and was colouring the leaves when I remembered to stop and take a photo.  I am thinking of using them for the last page of my art calendar journal. I have been following Kate Crane's site since the beginning of the year and decided to join in and now I can't believe I have nearly finished.  The bonus being I have a calendar journal with all the little details of what we have been doing this year.

Clever Morti correctly guessed that the "brown thingy" on my desk from last week was a wood carved fabric stamp.  A little gift is flying her way.

Hopefully by next woyww I will have started a few xmas cards.   I am sure I will get some inspiration from visiting all the other woywwers today.

    Like those flowers. (The ones you haven't coloured in yet.) And you could use that wooden stamp as a mold for that paper casting method I mentioned last week. Then you would have a 3D textural thingy you could use.

    I love using book pages for stamping and die cutting, they give such a nice texture to the image.

    I love those leaves on the printed page! I've got lots of leaf stamps and have never thought of using them to make any sort of regular pattern. Thanks for the inspiration! Happy WOYWW, Shoshi #70

    I love stamping on old books, great look. Must hunt some out but the problem is that I love old books too much to cut them up, or stamp on them for that matter!!!

    OOh yeah, you're right - those stamps are lovely - what you're doing with them is even lovelier! Is that a plastic sheet you're working on? Des it double as a pallette or merely a protector? See, WOYWW was always about being nosey!!
