Birthday Album Dyed Venise and silk ribbon embroidery - Close-up

This is a close-up shot of  the birthday album cover featuring a section of the rayon Venise lace dyed with RibbonSmyth's rayon dyes and surrounded with bias-cut silk ribbon flowers.  I  made a few "twisty roses" with the bias-cut silk ribbon and then added a clear Swarovski crystal into the center of the rose.
