A CARD AND ECO-DYING RESULTS

Hello dear friends , I thought I wanted to show you some of my 

Eco-dye results , and first a card ,where I used two leaves dyed onto

paper . Put together with laces, old book page, scraps and embossed papers.

This beautiful leaf is dyes onto a piece of cotton ,

I used vinegar, and rusty pieces in the boiling water ,

and also the rust was sitting maybe a week in the pot ,

before using it to dye, so there were a lot of rust dust !!

They comes up as little spots onto some of the pieces.

These leaves are also on cotton fabric .....

And these and the one below..... as you can see they comes out 

very differently, -surely because of the different leaves I have used

are giving different colors and strength of print !!

The two last pieces are both onto paper, and from the same bath 

as the ones above , I love this whitish leaf where the veins came

out a little yellow . If you click the photos, you can see more details.

I hope you are not bored , this new area is really giving

much excitement  and joy , even it can be difficult to keep

patient , and wait overnight , before opening the bunch up .

Here we celebrate Christ`s Ascension today, so

the world outside is quiet , --and I thought I better make 

a new blog posts. 

A lovely day to all of you ,-

Hugs and love
