I love stamping with images of leaves and usually use chalk inks as I love their softness and blend-ability so for this week's
Wednesday Stamper theme of "Leaves" I have dug out my Burnt Sienna and Charcoal Chalk Ink-pads. The leaf is by Amazing Creations, the tiny text by Collections and the crackle is one of four images on an "aging block" by Lucy's Stamps. Scrap of scrapbook paper (very appropriate, hey?), some gold sticker strips and a recycled op shop button to finish.
And while I am writing a post I thought I'd load a scan of a piece of fabric I have decorated with Shiva Sticks (green, black and gold). I think it will make interesting backgrounds for some fabric postcards and ATCs. I used the swirl and circle rubbing boards that I posted about a few weeks back. They worked a treat so I am going to make up some more with different shapes. It is a great way to use up old dimensional paint and I have heaps of it left from my T Shirt decorating days.

Lovely Debbi. I haven't used those chalk inks in ages.
Oh, gorgeous fabric! I have just got hold of a shiva stik, and have been shiva-ing everything in sight - I love it; it's so shiny.
Your leaves are beautiful, and you're right - the chalk inks are perfect for any sort of nature type stamping.
Very elegant.
Lots of beautiful autumn leaves! Your card looks GREAT Debbi!
