quickly, too quickly - a quite unfinished mixed media piece

This one isn't behaving. I managed to work this far a week ago, but then I just got stuck. The gold leaf on self-made paper is really pretty (also impossible to portray well in photos), and there's nothing wrong with the rest of it, I simply don't know what to do next.

I like the combination of gold and blue (one of Emil's albums), so maybe that's a way to go. The embroidery is sort of taupe-y coloured, though. I'm at a loss, but I know this is a piece that still needs something - a box or a background of sorts at least.

Scatterbrain days - just a few more until I can gather myself and focus fully on my own projects again.
