This was created from two subjects a beautiful bouquet and a gold colored chandelier I saw in an antique store. I had to add some gold hue to the tarnished chandelier to bring its beauty out again. I also had to cut out the background around the chandelier. After I put the new traced version on a black background I placed it in the kaleidoscope filter amd gave it a spin. You can see a little bit of it through the gradient blue I placed over it ( which also was spun). To get the fillagree for the broach I gave the chandelier a spin on top of a spin till I found something I liked. I then traced and copied it. Later on I gave that another spin to make it more delicate. The flowers are just a lovely bouquet I saw and took a picture of. To have a little glow to the flowers, I gaussian blured them and placed them under the original, with the lovely fillagree edging around them. Hope you enjoy my mixed media creation.
