This is my first attempt at Mixed Media.  I used a piece of 6x6 paper from the London Market collection with the roses as my beginning for this piece.  The background has texture paste with roses stamped into the paste before it dried.  I chose a green for the background to coordinate with the green on the paper.  From there, I used stamps, punches, and die cuts to built the piece.  This is on an 8x8 canvas.
