Time for a new challenge at Shopping Our Stash and this fortnight we're going for the GOLD; by which we mean we'd like to see cards and projects which prominently feature that gorgeous metallic shade. Here's my card:
I used Ranger Princess Gold Embossing Powder with (parts of) three different Simon Hurley create. stamps (Typewriter, Leaf Prints and Rose Borders) on a square of a collage-style paper from Prima's Pretty Pale Collection of several years ago. To add to the distressed/ vintage collage vibe, after I applied the embossing powder to each section, I took a small paintbrush and randomly flicked some of it off before using the Heat Tool. I put a bit of Dark Roast Archival around all the edges of the 5" square panel, matted it on glossy gold cardstock and then added Memory Box's Maribelle Butterfly (cut from the same gold cardstock) and machine stitching around the edges.
SOS568: Golden Years runs until the evening of Monday, March 9th. Hop over to SOS to see the rest of the Crew's Golden goodies, then start thinking about what you'll link up with us this fortnight.
