Eco Printing on Paper and Silk

 My sister's neighbour very kindly let me take some of her Eucalyptus leaves for eco-printing and I am really pleased with the results .  I steamed two lots of papers, and added a bundle of rolled up silk to each pan.  
One lot of silk and papers are darker and a soft brownish mauve - just perfect for my night garden theme...
...and the second lot of silk and papers are a more delicate yellowy gold with a soft pale lilac and beige - perhaps it was the Crocosmia in this bundle that made it more yellow. 
I am linking up with Julia over at What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday - why not pop over and see what other people have on their desks this week!
