Keep my flowers small

Hello everyone…I am designing this same type item with my family information on it to engrave. When I get a leafy type wreath and make it large to go around the outer rings the leaves grow at the same rate taking up more room where text should go. Basically how do I make a 12" leafy wreath with small leaves?
Regards,

The short answer is you re-draw it. There isn’t a trivial way to do this, but if you have a ring and a single leaf shape, you could use the ‘Copy along path’ tool to put a bunch of them around the path. They’d be evenly spaced, which could look odd, but doing it a few times with different spacing could potentially make that work.

Thank you OZ. I will get to making leaves.
