I handcut the leave motif. I've got something really cool in mind using that technique and digital scrapbooking if I can get around to it. I love hand cutting because it's fast and gives an organic feel to your layout. Here I crumpled it and distressed it a bit after cutting.
Another great tip is to use tags as blocks of pattern paper. Here I stamped mine and I think it adds another layer of dimension.
