Who needs a leaf stamp when you can go outside, pick a REAL leaf off the tree and put it through your die cut machine??? This technique is called "Duoprinting with chlorophyll" and you can see this technique
here. Lydia made some beautiful sympathy cards with her leaves and you have to see them. With one of the challenges, we are to use a Maple leaf with watercolor and this is what I came up with. I used just a dab of watercolor under the sentiment :). Sentiment is by Taylored Expressions.
I want to pull some more leaves to make more cards before they fall off :).
