When designing this project, I was inspired by a piece made for children. We all love puzzle games and flowers! This one would be nice for your work desk or as home décor. In- spiring words and a new bouquet every day! I love using the mix of ink, paint, paper, etc., and the adventure of creating. This mixed media puzzle is fun and everyone will want a turn.
