Retro Florals .....



Made a set of Retro Artist Trading Coins (for swapping) on MDF laser-cut bases ....

The based were edged in gold Krylon pen and three circles of green light card were di-cut to 2.5 inches diameter as the base.  I then applied white gesso with a bubble-wrap square. and stamped a leafy vine in Archival black ink.  The centres of the spots were coloured with coloured Posca pen with some white accents added on the vine.  The circles were added to the MDF bases at this stage.

The florals and leaves were stamped in Memento black ink and coloured with Copic markers before trimming out and glazing with a gloss acrylic.

They were stuck in place with the florals added on foam pads.  Some circles of silver and gold glitter card were punched and added as shown and the words printed, trimmed and applied also.

Each coin was then edged with wavy overlapping lines made with a fine Micron pen.
