New venture - Henna Cards

Today I tried a new technique of making cards. I had some Henna cones left from my Karva Chauth stall. So decided to make cards out of it. Here are some before and after images for your feedback.

Card with Henna paste on
 
After removing the dried paste.....the stain left on paper!!

I have also used a Mat finish spray to cover the Henna stain for long lasting. Below are some more designs. Does anyone know how I can glue the henna paste itself? I have tried using glue in the henna mixture but it still doesn't stick well to paper. 



I liked this one with henna on paper


Looking forward for your comments!!!!
