I love you...I love you not...

Let me start off by saying that this is not my collage, each of those roses are individual, and were originally supposed to be my collage but I didn't want to sacrifice them so I saved them.  Now that that has been established, onto the project itself.  We were asked to carve out a stamp design from this block, and I decided to cut out a rose.  (this is going to be confusing so bear with me) Originally where you see the color it would have been all black, and where the lines are would have been white.  But then I decided to totally carve out the rose, which is how I got the prints above.  On each paper I painted different shades of the same color, waited for the paper to dry and then I put black ink on my stamp and ran them through the press, and got these :)  I am so proud of them!!!
