Sunprints and stamping

My husband Marc and I were at the family cottage in Bancroft, Ontario for two weeks and I spent a week doing some sunprinting and stamping pieces to be made into card holders.  I carved three new stamps and used those and I stamped using leaves of plants growing around the cottage.  Here are some photos.
 

The UV was quite high during that week so the leaves printed very well.  I first put some paint on the fabric and then lay on the leaves.  A bit of salt was sprinkled around them.

 

There are lots of ferns growing at our cottage so I made quite a few fern prints.

These leaves had some holes in them which made interesting prints.

Stamping with some of my newly carved stamps.  These will be made into business/credit card holders.

I carved a triangular stamp which can be moved around to create squares. 

I usually create quite a few pieces at the cottage in the summer because I can spread out my work outside in the sun and there's lots of inspiration around.
