[@mariakirchner6437]

What a lovely way to create no fuss Eco dyed papers, thanks so much for sharing. Really loved how the papers had a very rustic look about them, wonderful video, thanks again.😊🍁🍂

Thank you for your comment, Maria. I'm glad you love them. I will definitely be making more of these papers in the future!

Nature at its best. I like color, texture with out the the mess and clean up.

[@theartsiecrafter]

Me too!

I love them all, funny when you say some didn't come out too well, but I can see the leaf impression, and lighter impressions leaves a lot of room for journaling. I enjoy eco-dying, love the surprise of what you may get, but what I love more about your idea is, you don't end up with a bunch of torn paper, every one of your sheets is usable as is, where I normally have more then a few that can only be used as scraps in embellishments, lol. So definitely gonna give this a try, thanks so much!!!

Glad you like them, Carol!

This is creative genius! Beautiful papers. Thanks for sharing.

[@susanmyrick2913]

Innovative approach. Thank you especially for sharing your failures…although I even likes those (book pages)…all grunge is good grunge.

As it’s almost summer where I live- the only way I can try this before fall, is to wait for a good windy rain day! Loved your method without all the work- thanks

[@theartsiecrafter]

You don't have to wait for fall. I did use a few fresh green leaves that were in my pile of dead leaves and they gave just as good a result as the others. You could try and soak them in water for a few days, before trying this method.

[@diane2941]

No boiling water! Yay! thanks for the idea.

[@theartsiecrafter]

You are so welcome, Diane!

Liked all your eco printing an seems to be alot easy to do with your method.I will give it a try.

[@theartsiecrafter]

Go for it!

[@ppgypsy]

Beautiful textures ...it would be wonderful if u could do a video on how you would use these ecoprint sheets ...in different ways. Thanks

[@theartsiecrafter]

Great Idea! I am using them just as pages in my June grungy junk journal - but I will have to remember to use them in a project to show them off a little more.

[@margarethabotes2839]

Amazing results❤

[@angelinamichelle8474]

Brilliant! The the palaver of eco dyeing not for me either so this is something I will definitely embrace. The book pages probably didn't work as they are way too porous. Perhaps a thin coat of very liquid pva first....

[@theartsiecrafter]

Thanks for the tip. I will give it a try, the next time I do some faux eco-dying.

[@elainet5870]

Excellent technique! 😃

[@theartsiecrafter]

Thank you, Elaine.

[@wandabaldwin2479]

really great idea

[@theartsiecrafter]

Thank you, Wanda! 😊

[@DarlaW]

Very cool idea! I love the look of eco printing but would be concerned that I'd find something poisonous to boil. This way there is less chance of poisoning and it looks really awesome! TFS!!

[@theartsiecrafter]

Thanks for the comments Darla. I agree, this is a much safer method of eco-printing
