A LITTLE WALL HANGING

I made this over the last few days in between my Creative Chemistry 102 lessons.
The inspiration came from Craft Stamper magazine and together with my own twist on the sample given I set to and created this 8"x8" canvas.
The flowers are made using the tattered florals die, the dark leaves are also die cut but the maple leaves are stamped and carefully cut out. 
I have used distress inks, gesso and distress stains to create colour and shading. After spending ages dismantling an old chain bracelet in order to use the chain as the hanging method, the bloomin' thing wouldn't go through the holes so I had to resort to ribbon.
I had fun so that's the main thing.
