leaf it to me

this past weekend my sisters and I went to Austin for my "bachelorette" party. 

in addition to bridesmaid dress shopping, day drinking, and succulent photographing we made a trip to craft, where for $10/hour you can use all their supplies and tools for whatever creative adventures your heart desires.

I designed and printed two simple leaf motifs to go with the "woodsy" theme of our wedding:

once I had mastered my technique on paper I took my talents to textiles. then sammie convinced me to use this as an opportunity to knock off a wedding craft: welcome bags.
