i think its really nice, so different which is a nice change, maybe if the leaf was less opaque, like more see through if that makes any sense and blended into the background

Thanks for the honest opinions...I REALLY appreciate it! I am trying to find out if the leaf can be made smaller or add more to the 1 leaf.

If anyone else has any opinions, I'd love to hear it

I actually really like it (and the leaf!) i would just add a small leaf branching off on the left side to balance it out.

I love this!! I think the realism is really stunning.

I love the fading work as well.

The one thing I will say... although I love the actual leaf... I feel like the stem should look a little more flowy... perhaps straighten it out a little bit more. Not stick straight but not so much to the left. Also adding another leaf or two will balance it out.

It's very unique and not something you see a whole lot. You will get tons of compliments on them!! I got soo many compliments on mine... peole didn't even throw them out and they didn't want to even send their RSVP's back. I'll bet it will be the same with yours!!!

Also... instead of having the same exact leaf on each insert... what about other realistic looking leaves on the inserts.

like have one on the invite then a different one on each insert. that will break up the monotony of the same leaf.

Please don't lose the leaf though. And DO NOT change that shading!!!!

I love the colors!!! They are very warm and great for the Fall. It also looks like you put crystals on it which adds a nice touch. The leaf doesn't look bad but im not sure if you replaced what you could use.
