Painting with dried leaf-tutorial

Lakshmis stem event inspired me to create some thing with dried leaf
,..so i tried painting with leaf on tshirt for the first time,..
i used block paint colours..but i guess fabric paint can be used too,.i applied the colour on the sponge with help of spreader,..pressed the leaf on the pianted area and then pressed the same leaf hard on the tshirt,,,and wow,.i got beautiful impression of the leaf on the tank top,
..once done with leaf impressions,..i did stem stich all along the borders of the leaf
and finally did sequin embroidery on the midline,
..any pattern can be tried with leaf ,,,this is the simplest which i coukd get in my mind when i was doing
,..i couldnt click pic when i was dng leaf impression,..next time i do i will sure take,..hope this tutorial was helpful to u all,..if u all try painting with leaf ,..do share,..will be back with more,,.:-)
