Skeleton Leaves (revisited)

I love "what if" moments do you? The other day when I was playing with skeleton leaves I thought what if ........ I felted them on kunin felt and melted it with the heat gun. Well melted the piece I made the other day. I wasn't too happy with it when I had melted the felt. The chiffon scarf all but disappeared, I had to be quick. Of course where the skeleton leaves were it didn't melt. The bits around the leaves did and I heated the felt for a while until it all but disappeared. Most of the felt that was left behind is held together with the metallic thread. It needed a little something else and so I went over the whole piece with treasure gold. I think it has given it a gorgeous look. I think this would make a gorgeous book cover. What do you think?

Here's the whole piece. It's so hard to get a good picture of these pieces, the closeup is not too bad though. It gives you an idea of the end result. It's only by playing that you get more ideas. So just go and play until your heart is content. Don't forget to post your results on your blog.
