Mixed Media Black Christmas Tree

Hello again, here is my last tree board,

I could not decide which colour to use or background. 

 It started out as blue then red and finally

I chose to go with Liz's idea of black.  I painted

everything with black gesso stippling the board to give

more texture. 

I used not only metal flowers and other items but I

also buttons of all sizes.  I love the result.

I attached all the items with hot glue and then gilded with

Treasure Gold using 3 different colours.

Lastly I felt it needed just a little more and added the red stones

coloured with a Copic pen. 

I have enjoyed this series of festive boards and I still have a

multitude of buttons and junk to attach to something else!
