The tree shapes look really good Piet, especially once you place them on the base. What material are you making them out of?

No sorry, that does not look easy to do. :notworthy

its is ,

I am sure there are better ways to do it but this works for me (at the moment )

You need Paper, sticky tape ''the wide version'' scissors and thin steel wire.

Get a straight length of wire ,stick it to the paper with tape

Fold it

Then cut the shape of the leaf

And then get your scissors and start cutting the the fingers of the leaf
the steel wire will act as the leaf vein and best of all it prevents you cutting the leaf in two

And also the wire wil bend it any position you want.
