For Lydia's MIX challenge: MIX538 - Thoroughly Modern Art! by UnderstandBlue at Splitcoaststampers
I started something else, but still have to work out how to add the focal piece to a card. The flowers were on my desk from last week - trying to do something with an embossing folder and gelatos, but it all went a bit messy and I cut out just the flowers. So I reckoned Van Gogh counts as modern art, and went with a background that reminds me of his starry nights, and the sunflowers.
Background - stamped with Versamark, sprinkled a mix of copper, gold and silver embossing powders and heated. Spritzed with water and then added some chipped sapphire and stormy skies re-inkers.
The flowers were gelatos directly on the embossing folder, and the paper spritzed with water before embossing. I added some rub-on luster to the centres today. The leaves are an old spellbinders die cut from dark green card and buffed with more rub-ons.
Sentiment from Art Journey popped up on foam.
