Thanks suehlh. I will have a go with the pva. As I sell my cards for charity I didn't want the flowers to fall off if I used the wrong glue.

I've used the mice glue rollers for my own pressed flowers. Glueing the paper/card obviously, not the flower ::) ;D :D ;)[/color]

there are also clear type peel offs for covering things like dried flowers.

I use the clear round or square peeloffs to protect the flowers, and sometimes I use the adisive film you can buy on her site. I like to protect the flowers as they are so beautiful.

Thanks everyone for your help. Will try the adhesive film too.
