{Paper Flower canvas - Paper Rose made from heart punchies}

It's been a few months since I've made an altered canvas.

I had the idea rumbling around in my head for a few days.  I'm sure like me you may have felt saddened by recent events around the world, and for me it has been a devastating reminder of the fragility of life, the brokenness of this world and how we need to be responsible for our thoughts and actions.

I wanted to create a piece that reflected my feelings and was also a therapeutic act to re connect me to my Creator.

Here is the result.
