Gold Color Perceptions ATC

The color is Gold in June for the Color Perceptions ATC Swap on ArtVentures Group. The ATC is to be predominately gold and be how the color gold makes us feel. I'm not a jewelry person, but I find something about the warm shimmer of gold to be very "seductive".
I found an appropriate vintage image to print out, and colored over the hair and clothes with two different gold metallic pencils.
 Used an embossing fold to emboss some gold colored paper. Brushed brass Lumiere paint over the surface, then wiped the paint off of the raised areas with a paper towel.
 Adhered the colored vintage image, then added a dot of gold Pearl Pen to the ring on the man's finger. Used sunset gold Lumiere paint to color the edges of the ATC.
 Added round and flat gold brads to the crown points, and attached a couple of different gold filaments to the bottom left corner with a mini gold brad.
