Day 29: Vegetable Printed Wrapping Paper

Vegetable printing: SUPER easy and really beautiful.  You probably did it in grade school. Well, it is still fun and still easy to do.

Tomorrow is the last day of 30 Days of Creativity.  I’m running out of energy to do a daily project.  I want to read a book! So – an easy project that I could fit between my morning workout and my morning shower.

The cut end of a head of celery.  Pigment ink which is more like paint than water-based ink.  Or you could use paint.

A new potato, cut in half and carved into a simple leaf shape.

Start with the celery – stamp the whole sheet (or sheets) of paper.  Pull off a few stalks to make a smaller rose.  Stamp again.  Pull off a few more, stamp matching tags.

Both brown kraft paper and white tissue paper work for stamping.  Cover the table underneath the paper you are stamping as the ink can bleed through a bit.

That’s it!  See you tomorrow for the LAST PROJECT in 30 Days of Creativity.

Thanks for checking this out.
