Hi, Samantha! You mentioned above that you might have some (ceramic?) leaves you painted that are for sale. How would I contact you about that?

Driving in our Jeep yesterday the tiniest little leaf made it’s way through the open top roof…it was small, and adorable, and a few days ago, i would have discarded it outside. but thanks to your post, this little leaf made quite the impression on me & i had to do a little doodle on it. Nothing fancy, but it did make my day & i thank you for inspiring me to look at leaves a little bit differently!! It’s going to be a fun autumn!!! Xoxo

This is beautiful. Not the plagarism bit. The art. It makes my heart happy.

You may already know, but if you click on the photo on the uncredited leaf tutorial page, that link takes you to a website where you are indeed credited for the photo by the original poster of the photo (Setaprint, https://www.setaprint.net/2019/01/painted-leaves/).
