Lace Motif Piece #5

This is the last piece I have planned in this series. I am just getting going with it. I did the background in gold, then added highlights of purple and pink. I had decent success rubbing some dark purple just on the surface of the lace with my finger to highlight the details. This piece needs more richness of color.
Edited 1/18/08: I changed my mind. I don't think it needs more color. I think a limited palette is better for this piece. I did highlight a little in gold and add some glitter:
I think I'm going to put this one away for a few days and then decide if I'm going to do more to it.
