Making botanical print leaf impressions with spray inks is a great way to reuse your leaves after eco dyeing. This tutorial is inspired by Jibid Neary. Even if you don't use the leaves first for eco printing, using distress sprays for leaf impressions is a great alternative.
The first time I did this I didn't have any Distress sprays so I dropped India ink on the page and then sprayed a lot of water on it to both dilute it and move it around.
This is one of those things you just have to play around with and know that sometimes you will get papers you love and sometimes they will just be so so.

Hi Susan. A quick tip..if you can't get the leaves to lie flat you can poor a bit of boiling hot water over it an lay it down while it is still warm. Gives super impressions. 😊

@masja1790 6 лет назад

@@SusanTaylorBrown That will probably work out fine as well...unless all the goodness has been boiled out of the leaves. 😂 good luck with it. 💕

@doloresraml6539 11 месяцев назад

Very interesting papers. Love that you don’t have to wait so many days for it to be dry.

@melanieevaldi7222 4 года назад

It helps alot to soak the leaves in water for a few hours. You can even soften crispy leaves this way, just be carful not to crack them before you get them in the water. Stick the foliage on the tea dyed paper then spray with distress ink. Your trying so that's what counts and that's how we learn. Tks for sharing 🌿

@@SusanTaylorBrown Sometimes I don't pay attention to dates but I should especially if I'm going to comment,however I really do appreciate you explaining the various techniques you have used. I must admit I lag behind you girls but am very great full for you all have taught me so much and I am much older than many of you and have been crafting for a long time. I love love love being in nature and like you I love leaves, trees, dirt and all the rest so when I seen this eco dye craze of course I had to try. I did the basic bundle & steam treatment and it worked very well. It was very exciting, I actually went to the forest yesterday to collect some more foliage to try another way. I have been soaking some rusty metal as some ladies use it as you probably know. Any way thank you so much for responding and I look forward to more videos.

I can't thank you enough for showing the not-quite-what-you-expected results. It's so informative to see the projects as they evolve. And really? I thought they were all quite interesting. Thanks for your generosity!

@laurienye7514 Год назад

I enjoyed it very much.

@suebrown7882 Год назад

Thanks for sharing - I have also had varied results with this method. To enhance leaf veins I tried putting the vein ridged side down and going over the page with a brayer or rolling pin. To mute distress inks I dilute them and then spray on pages - saves money too! You are lucky to have your American sunshine for drying - in the UK here we need to wait a couple of months for summer...

@avanellehansen4525 2 года назад

I put Saran wrap over everything and place weights on top. (books, a flat board with canned food,etc) it presses the botanicals against the paper. Just takes longer to dry.

@avanellehansen4525 2 года назад

Under plastic wrap and books it takes up to a week!

@nicoledemana 5 лет назад

they came out ok I usually lay more paper on top that is tea dyed and the weight helps the impression.

@grannygrimson 5 лет назад

Went for a walk with my grandsons to gather some autumn leaves, l am pressing them overnight to try and flatten them out a little. A thought on your mystery colours....yellow and blue make green, brown is made up of opposite colours r&g, b&or, y&pr. Since distress inks are water reactive they are bound to resort back to their base colours. And any form of diluted red becomes pink. But I love the results you got. I don’t have distress sprays so tomorrow I will see what happens with strong coffee and tea mixes. I tried this once before with Adirondack sprays but they are not water based so the spray just stayed in little dots😩 epic fail!

@MessyTableStudio 6 лет назад

Boy o boy are we related! Your comments about what you think will happen is never the same as what is in your head is totally how I operate. Lol! I dive head in first and then am shocked at my results. Lol! The papers look great.

@beverlyquinn1853 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing. Susan here is my suggestion--just like baking a cake...if you give 10 people the exact same recipe and put them in a kitchen to make it...each cake will turn out differently because of the hand that made it...just do you! Enjoy the creative process and release the outcome...you will be amazed at the reduction of your stress and frustration level. Peace Beverly

@mercysawme1 6 лет назад

Very pretty. If you want lighter colors...you might try putting a couple of drops from the distress reinkers into a mini mister... Same colors just lighter.

@LadyLeda2 5 лет назад

Those distress sprays and the Dylusion sprays have weird under tones to them. Any amount of diluting will bring out those other colors that are hidden in the spray. I worked with them all last summer. Started out doing Jibid's leaf impressions. Then the purples turned pink, the oranges turn yellow and a lot of the browns turn blue. Very strange inks, or should I say water colors!!! I need a new source of a light weight ink. They are so expensive just to try and see if they stay true to color. Right now I am trying watercolors with coffee instead of water. So far I really like it. It is amazing what coffee can do!!!

@eveny119 5 лет назад

In my yard that mystery tree would be either walnut or sumac, you smell it to identify it, walnut smell is very distinctive, pungent, smells astringent like. Thanks for the demo. Have you tried any other inks or sprays? Try mixing your colors to get a more muted look.

@scrapbagstudios 3 года назад

I think Jibid wets the paper first - very wet. Then when you add the ink it immediately starts spreading out and you don't get the intensity. I also buy some of the re-inkers which come in a dropper bottle, then I add them watered down to a small spray bottle. With all the water on the paper the ink spreads and also separates into its different components and I get interesting effects. I also spray after I have put the leaves/flowers on the paper. Some material transfers colour some doesn't. Some I get the outline some I don't. xoxoxo

@scrapbagstudios 3 года назад

I also add other inks or whatever to the small spray bottles so you can tone down the colour and I weight the leaves down where necessary (with the bottles of ink and anything else that's around me).

@scrapbagstudios 3 года назад

The not so good ones make interesting journal pages instead of just plain tea dyed papers.

@scrapbagstudios 3 года назад

@@SusanTaylorBrown I didn't notice the date on this video - it's the middle of the night here and I am not totally awake! I haven't watched Kory's video but I was going to try stacking because where I am atm I can't spread them out like I do at home. I will go now and watch her video. I am about to do a few for the journals to go into the exhibition in April. Specific colours for themed journals. Indigo for Old Japan, jewel colours for the Boho and Butterfly ones, greens/browns for the nature one, yellows/oranges for the sunflower one, etc. And some random whatever I feel like for whatever journal I come up with. I want to try adding some fabrics in as well.

@dominiquemaclellan1786 4 месяца назад

You so pray the leaves with water but you said you should have them dry to get the veins? Did i hear incorrectly?

@SusanTaylorBrown 4 месяца назад

It’s been a few years since I did this video and I don’t know this kind of work anymore. If I recall, I sprayed the leaves with the distress sprays and water and then you have to let them dry because it’s as things dry. They can imprint on the paper.

@thepickypainter9854 5 лет назад

Look at the outside edge of the red paper you made with the weed you took apart. When ur color is too bright, lay a blank page on top of it and press down for a few seconds. It will take away some of the color and leave a lighter shade.

@meganmmv972 6 лет назад

@bixnash1 2 года назад

The veining probably would happen more if you put the leaf underside down. Bx

@kayvallance9560 3 года назад

this was interesting - i wonder if it was something in your water reacting with the botanicals. also, many of your prints look somewhat like skeletons or skele-ish from the distance of the internet. overall, it looked like fun! also, where were you able to leave them to dry outside without the wind blowing them away?? thanks for sharing your experiment!

@swannerman45 5 лет назад

The tree leaves that came out well look like Mountain Ash leaves. Does the tree get bunches of red berries on it? If so, pretty sure it is Mountaiin Ash. Either way... love the process, great results!

What can I use if I don’t have distress spray color paints?

@SusanTaylorBrown Год назад

Try watercolors any kind of water-based paint or even maybe watered down acrylics although I haven't tried that before.

@CoxJoxSox 6 лет назад

What paper are you using? I think the coffee/tea had an influence on the plants and altered the colors.

@rneustel388 5 лет назад

Do you soak your plants and flowers first-that’s what Jibid does? I couldn’t tell-you probably did, though.

@rneustel388 5 лет назад

Susan Taylor Brown Ok. I figured you did, I just couldn’t tell. I really want to do this when we have leaves and flowers again!

@Engelhafen 3 года назад

She soaked her leaves which helped them lay flat

@LadyLeda2 5 лет назад

Oh Susan, so much I want to say!!! LOL Distress sprays and Dylusion Sprays have different colors hidden in them. So for instance, when you used barn door you got pink. The same will happen with their purple sprays, and some of the orange sprays will turn yellow. It only happens when you try to water them down. So this technique only works for some of the sprays if you want to same color. You can tone down the brightness of the colors by putting a few drops of brown into the bottle before you spray. It is all experimenting to get what you like. I think that's the fun part of art!!!
