Rug Inspired

Photo Details

Poster: Rox71

The Inspiration Challenge showed a photo of a rug which you can see in the link and this in interpretation of what I saw.
Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I played off the borders and leafy swirls. The outside borders are stickers my SIL found at a garage sale, I didnt think Id ever use them but I like how this turned out.
The cardstock is a beige linen texture and I sponged Creamy Caramel on it. The flower is colored with pad ink and aqua painter.

Hey, Roxie, those garage sale stickers look pretty good when you stick them on a rug and call them oriental! Great take on the challenge. I especially like your stickers.
