You have a few options.
Personally I would take some wide double sided tape, lay it down with tacky side up (backing still on underside) lay the flowers on the tacky side, cover it with a piece of a transparency and then stick the whole thing down on the page. That way bits won't go everywhere.
You could also use a glue pen or one of those momento pockets but with both these options you will see bits of the flowers seperate and break off eventually.

I'd use a kind of adhesive for which I do not know the correct name. Darn. Sorry. It's a small square or circle of very thin and flexible foam with stick-um on both sides. Peel the paper off one side, stick that to the daisy, then peel the paper off the other side and stick the whole thing onto the page. I guess glue dots would also work. You'll mainly want some kind of heavy adhesive that is not a liquid. I'd go with the foam square or the glue dots because they will adhere better to the uneven surface of the dried flower and will therefore adhere it better to the page.

I spoke of on a scrapbook practice a tremendous variety of human beings love digital for an identical causes you say. you are able to print them up and album them and yet another sturdy element about it really is you are able to upload some gildings without spending a tremendous variety of time. you may want to nevertheless use archival secure paper so it is going to very last to pass down for generations. i imagine Epson has some sturdy stuff too.

I agree with the first answer. A circular photo mount should do the trick, but you might want some of that adhesive that you roll out kind of like tape for the petals

There is spray adhesive, or you could use double sided tape.

white glue should work. but they will fray over time. maybe you can stick them with the photo in a clear envelope.
