It's the time of year where you can gather some of nature's most beautiful colors right off the ground you're walking on. There are oodles of things to do with leaves. Rubbings, skeletonizing, sewing or glueing them directly into collages.
If you happen to own a laminator like I do... chuck one in-between your substrate and slip it through your machine. Sprinkle in a note or glitter or anything else that won't add to the bulk and thickness of your already textured leaf.
Cut generously around the laminated shape, add a quick rivet and hang by a fishing line. Hang a bunch of them randomly throughout your house, and if you're standing back from a distance you can pretend the leaves are actually suspended right in mid-air.
Wonderful! You are my favorite laminator.

What a great idea to laminate them.(Have no laminator myself though...)
At this moment I am pressing them between paper and drying them. Still don't know what to do with them. But they look so great!
