Retro 1970's Style Plaquette

I have always loved '70's things; disco, flares, floral shirts and platform shoes to name but a few, so when a friend recently showed me some 1970's style vinyl wallpaper that she had bought, I was immediately excited about what way I could use it on one of my wall plaquettes.  As the design was large circles (see pic below) and I was using a small enough piece of wood, I had to cut the wallpaper into smaller sized segments in order to create something interesting on the board.  The overlapping circle sections of yellow, orange, rust and brown coupled with the 'Quant' style flower cut-outs make this piece a nostalgic throwback to an era of flower-power peace and love...
