Yes, good idea for the leaves...I will have to see if I have some really dark green paper, or the olive green, maybe. Show me what leaves you use when it is done. Thanks for this project today.

I was also thinking of putting some leaves on the card base, under the flowers. That will be my next thing to try...
Great card and flowers! Will have to try this file!
For glue, I will try my Score-Tape, I'm thinking that will work great and you can rip it off anywhere for length, it should hold real good.

Here is my stab at adding leaves. Most paper I had seemed much too heavy for the delicate vellum flowers, so I used vellum for the leaves too.

I really need to use some of your ideas for better glue though. The glue pen I am using is just not great.
