# Cardboard Monstera Leaf Shadow — Z-Image Image Prompt

## Editor's note

A die-cut cardboard leaf floats above fuchsia paper, its raw edges and hard shadow the whole point. Craft-object flat lay, no plant involved.

## Prompt

Copy the text below exactly into Workroom with Z-Image selected to reproduce this result.

Top-down flat lay, square. Backdrop: vivid fuchsia #FF006E paper, smooth matte, edge to edge. Centered: a thick die-cut cardboard silhouette of a broad monstera-shaped leaf, lifted about 3 cm above the surface on hidden supports, its ivory #F5F0E8 board face clean and unprinted, cut edges showing raw corrugated fluting. Directly beneath it a crisp hard-edged shadow in deep indigo #1B3A8A falls on the fuchsia paper, offset slightly right so the gap between object and shadow reads clearly. Two small offcut scraps of the same ivory board rest flat near the frame corners. Palette: fuchsia #FF006E dominant, ivory #F5F0E8 leaf, indigo #1B3A8A shadow. Lighting: flat even softbox from directly above, uniform across the paper, no gradients. Camera: strict top-down, f/8, everything sharp.
