How many leaves does it take?

This card looks simple right?  Well I nearly lost it all over this card.  I knew how I wanted it to look and it took me forever (repeat forever) to get the coloring on the leaf right.  I like how it turned out in the end but a lot of leaves were raked directly into the trash in the making of this card!
