Default The Gilded Age - gilded collage

I saw a similar technique on Donna Downey's blog with more 3D items and I modified it a bit and added some gilding since gold seems to be the new black this year.

I collaged paper flowers onto watercolor paper, coated them with gesso and acrylic paint and adding shading with pan pastels and gilding with Inka Gold.

Here's the tutorial and my complete blog post.
