SHOPPING OUR STASH #202 - Silver & Gold



Hello all, and welcome to another fun challenge at SHOPPING OUR STASH! This is another milestone challenge for us, because May 24th marks our 4 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!! Woo Hoo! To celebrate, we'd like you to use both Silver and Gold on your card or project. Here's what I came up with:


 Here's the inside:

As I was stalking Pinterest, I came across this card by Cornelia, and decided I had to CASE it. (Thanks Cornelia for the inspiration!) This is also an almost one layer card - a rarity for me as I LOVE layers on my cards. I die cut the wreath and bow out of silver glitter paper, heat embossed the sentiment in champagne EP and added tiny pearls to the wreath and a larger one to the bow. (In hindsight, I should have cut the bow from gold glitter paper. Duh. Oh well) The inside is stamped in Brilliance Galaxy Gold, then I underlined it with a silver pen (you might be able to see it if you enlarge the picture, but trust me, it's there.) ☺

So, break out your gold and silver embossing powders, your glitter/foil papers, and use them to make a card or project! Be sure to link it up at Shopping Our Stash so we can Ooh and Aah over it! While there, check out what my teammies created and leave them some bloggy love! Thanks for hanging out with me, I hope you have a great day!
