Gingko Leaf Stamp



I loved biology at school and recent walks about my local area have renewed my interest in botany. I remember learning about the ancient Gingko Biloba in class and how happy I was to go and see one in Johnstone Park in Geelong.  So here is my Gingko stamp. Perhaps the first of a new series on botanic stamps. I'm hesitant because so many of the flowers I like at the moment are incredibly complex in design. Just have a look at the Grevillea below!

  2. This is a gorgeous stamp Chantal. I'm looking forward to perhaps seeing a few more in a botanical series. I can imagine how difficult it would be to replicate something like the Grevillea above. Good luck and have fun with whatever you decide to work on next.
