Gold and Silver

Hello!

Are you having a good weekend?  Our tree is now up so we are starting to feel a bit more festive, just have another 1,000,000 jobs to do :)  Crafting isn't high on the to do list but I still indulged in a bit of play time.

Here is a card that I made for a few challenges:


This gold embossed swirly tree is from Inkylicious and added lots of green pearls.  Matted on green and gold cardstock.  I will link this up at Inkspirational where the challenge is gold and another colour along with Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge to bling it on!

I also wanted to play along with this week's CASology where the cue card is Silver and decided to use these fun stamps from Altenew:


The big diamond is from Avery Elle and embossed in silver.  I thought it would make a cute engagement card.

That's all for today.  I hope to get a chance to get inky again tomorrow :)

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah x

  2. Such simple cards with a big impact! I love the tree on the first card. Your addition of the pearls is a perfect touch. The image on the second is so unique. Great addition of the faux stitching. Thanks for sharing with us at Inkspirational!
