first time competitor

This started life as a plain wooden photo frame. The frame has had various items glued to it including paper mesh, pieces of chain, a heart and flowers, then it was covered in metal tape, I used an embossing tool to ensure the glued items stand out then it was covered in black paint and copper paint which was wiped off and dried with a heat gun. This is my first ever entry to a competition so be gentle with me.  Thanks
