Pressed Flower Backgrounds



A while back I pressed some flowers from our yard using the Wizard die/embossing unit with watercolor paper. Several didn't turn out as I envisioned but I kept them for other uses. As it turned out, they make terrific backgrounds for images printed on transparencies.

This is an example of one I put together this afternoon. I want to add an embellishment at the lower left....any ideas?

Very pretty, love the colors. Don't you have a corner press? Or maybe some rhinestones.

This is beautiful ... how about a mizuhiki knot in the corner????

Ooooh la la! Very lovely. Of course, I'd go for a couple of brads in the lower left corner... =)

You know, coming back a different day... I'd leave it as is. The flow is really nice and strong from upper left to lower right--if you added something in the lower left there wouldn't be much white space left...

Normally, I would not dream of making suggestions to someone as talented as you, but as you did ask, may I suggest a small Mizuhiki knot or mabe a small coin?
