For a while now I have been keeping all my off cuts that come from trimming card bases or papers. Today seemed like a good time to use up all those snippets and scraps. I created a woven background that I inserted into a round opening.
Two black die cuts form the backdrop for the vividly colored rose, which was embossed with clear embossing powder before I colored it in.
Entering this in the challenges that inspired me today:
Scrapping4Fun: #225 Birthday

A lovely bold bloom against the paper weaving, many thanks for sharing at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.
