Having been relatively good posting for Blogtober, I have become rather lax at posting anything during November so far, so I had better put that to rights.

I made this ATC for a swap where the theme was to print using fruit or vegetables. I chose to use onion which I must say was incredibly smelly! I brayered red and yellow and a tiny bit of black acrylic paint on my gelli plate and then used the cut onion to lift paint off of the plate and printed it randomly onto a clean sheet of paper. By using the gelli plate it was easy to keep moving the paint around. Once dry I cut the paper into ATC sized pieces and then stitched around some of the onion ring designs followed by added white highlights. Finally I stamped a flower onto another piece of gelli printed cardstock and finished off with a button.
