Jingle Belles Rock Silver, Gold and Copper.

What a great prompt for a challenge, I don't use heavy metals often so it was a great way to get me out of my comfort zone.  For this card I used gold and white.

The background was embossed with a large Cuttlebug snowflake folder, the snowflakes are from Elizabeth Craft Designs, the dots are leftovers from the centers of the smaller snowflake die. I also added the Merry I believe it is a set die and stamps from Hero Arts. 

Close up of the snowflakes. 

Since this card is a commissioned card I haven't personalized the inside, but it will be computer generated.

thanks for looking today and have a fantastic weekend.

Shopping Our Stash Challenge #287 ~~ All that Glitters is Gold!!!

Chana is testing us again!!! Shopping Our Stash #286 All that Glitters is Gold so we want to see gold on your card!!! I really wanted to make something other than a Christmas/holiday but I just couldn't get my head to accept it but went with a "winter" card. Our snow is mostly gone and we have had days of heavy fog that has lasted all day, not conducive to driving far. (then I get to craft)  Here is my glittery card.

Ok this is a stash bustin' card, the only cut piece was the base. The background behind the sleigh (first time using it) is a failed northern lights technique, The frame is a die I bought ages ago and never used (I saw an ornament and had to have the die, you know the routine) the gold was a fairly large scrap on my table although it really doesn't look gold in the picture but I promise you it is.

You can see the northern lights and the lovely as a tree that was embossed with some black sparkle embossing powder, I dotted it with some stickles.

I dug out my rarely used Egyptian gold embossing powder for the sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by today and I would love to see your project on the SOS blog and give me some ideas for non holiday gold cards lol.
