Yes, it's a textile paint. You can use any acrylic paint you like. But, if you are going to wash the fabric, you'll need to use a textile paint and set it according to the paint manufacterer's directions.
It totally depends on what paint you use. If you use a paint designed to be permanent on fabric and follow the directions on the bottle to set it, it will be permanent.
You can use many types of leaves. The best ones are not too thick, but not too delicate either, and they lay quite flat. The best thing is to experiment with your local leaves and see what works for you.
Hi Maryam, any good fabric or textile paint will work. You want a paint with a thick consistency, not watery. I use one made in New Zealand by CCG industries. A brand like Liquitex or Jacquard will work well.
