Also, Happy St. Patrick's Day! Normally, one would think that this day would be all about green. I'm going to stray a bit, but just a tiny bit...let's use GOLD! Think about that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Gold always makes everything look so elegant. I also think it pairs nicely with green!

Toni- thanks for the Gold challenge. I went with a lively background for my card, adding a gold striped washi tape border all around, and fussy cutting my main image and sentiment. Finished with a wrapped old gold ribbon treatment. Here's WT888 Bird Mail

Just added to the tool & product forum, but this is along the same vein-
-I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for a gold powder that is shiny. I have older SU powder (probably 5 years), and it's not super shiny--I'd like something that would go well with SU's Symbols of Fortune and Expressions in Ink papers, so almost foil-like. The catalog doesn't offer gold powder separately, and I have several copper and silver powders already. I'm not opposing to ordering on line, but have both Joann's and Michaels within a reasonable driving distance. Thanks in advance for your help.
I am playing my "Challenge Catch-up" cardmaking and catching up on a few Easter cards that I forgot to post!
I've brought on all the gold in the BG layering, oval scallop layer, and Gold filigree cross. (Read description re: gold on layering and scallop framing...no pic of re-modeled finished card).
