"Happy Birthday" – Art Nouveau

This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was “Happy Birthday” in celebration of their one-year anniversary. I made an art nouveau theme, using several images. I had to recreate part of the banner, then I colored it. I also added some swirl designs to it, as well as the message on it. The background is a replicated flower border. When I was done, I added some lighting effects to give it texture and depth.

    I LOVE Art Nouveau! Your card is absolutely scrumptious. Fantastic work. Great textures. (Anne, I don't know if you are the Anne who posted in the postcard challenge (there are a few Annes!) but there are two entries from an "Anne" neither of which are linked. For some reason not even the name was highlighted to enable clicking on. I found you in a roundabout sort of way).
