I agree - just one in the upper left would give it the "pop" you mentioned.
I so love it without as well.

Aren't we helpful? LOL

I'd put three in the lower right corner and omit the other two.

I prefer it with no roses. If I had to pick, I'd go with the last photo.

I do like the punch of color that the rose adds. Have you thought about putting one rose inside the circle at the top right corner? It would like framed that way.

Prefer no roses.if you want colour one rose top left corner only. 3 together definitely too many.
