BLACK and GOLD

I've been toying with making a black canvas for some time and finally gave it a go this week inbetween all the jobs.

I had some Core'dinations black card stacks and I picked out all the ones with yellow backs and cut flowers from my tattered florals die. These were sanded to reveal the different hues of yellow and then I made roses. I die cut some foliage and swirls and put the whole thing together adding beads and embellishments.
It turned out like this -

Cool canvas! Really love the black flowers. The bit of yellow on the edges looks like gold in the pic.
