My favorite technique of all time! One never knows what one will get....could be a blob of chlorophyll juice with all sorts of plant material stuck to it or a nice print with a little chlorophyll juice (see the left hand side). I don't mind that as long as one can tell it's a leaf or a flower. Duo means you get two prints for the price of one. Check it out in our tutorials! Super fun and now is the time to try it!!! Generally leaves have less juice, flowers can have a lot.
I cut two of the smaller leaves out and popped them up. These are clematis leaves and I just happen to have a clematis plant. I've seen some really beautiful and unusual ones this summer: https://www.afloral.com/products/uv-...-5-tall-fbc313

Awesome results, awesome card! I love tour chlorophyll prints. And am still hoarding a few you gifted me last year from your Joe Pye! My Pye are over four feet. I will press a few for you.

Ohhh! Ahhhh! This is stunning! I still haven't tried this technique! What am I waiting for. You did this brilliantly! I really like that you added some popped-up leaves!

I love your sentiment, Jean. I think it is good advice for people all around - especially people who are stuck in social media while hanging out with friends and family (or work) - I worry about them.
Love your technique here too - I have never tried it and need to go out right now and get some leaves!
Lovely card. Hugz
