Leaf & Foliage Outline Templates: 36 Printable Leaf Drawing Templates

Thirty-six leaf and foliage outline templates to trace, colour or paint, from hedgerow and garden leaves to herbs and house plants, including four detailed showpiece pages. They're lovely for cards, gift tags, garlands, journal pages, botanical drawing practice and colouring in.

THE FOUR SHOWPIECE PAGES

Four really detailed full-page drawings: a winter greenery wreath with pine cones, holly, ivy, eucalyptus and a ribbon bow; a monstera and fern jungle arrangement; a falling-leaves border frame with acorns and sycamore seeds around a blank centre; and a botanical-style leaf chart with nine labelled leaves (drawn for tracing and colouring, not as an identification guide).

HOW TO USE

Print at actual size (on US Letter paper, choose "fit to page"). Trace with a soft pencil, or tape a page behind fresh paper on a bright window or light pad and trace it onto good paper or card. Colour them in with pencils, markers or watercolour, cut them out for garlands and cards, or import a page into Procreate, lower its opacity and draw on a new layer above it.

If you've downloaded my free leaf outline templates, this is the bigger set: 36 different leaves, not the same pages again.

PERFECT FOR

Botanical drawing and watercolour practice, handmade cards and gift tags, autumn and winter garlands, junk journal and nature journal pages, colouring with children or grandchildren, and anyone who loves leaves but doesn't want to draw them from scratch.

Personal use and small handmade crafts are both welcome. Please don't resell or share the files themselves.

HOW THESE ARE MADE

Every drawing in this set is my original concept, created in my signature style using AI-assisted illustration tools, then checked page by page before release.
